ABSTRACT
We report a 37-year-old female patient with pulmonary cryptococcosis who presented with a one week old history of cough and fever. Within a week of admission, she developed cryptococcal meningitis and 5 months later cryptococcomas of the brain were detected. She was successfully treated with 2 courses of amphotericin-B at an interval of 5 months. 5-flucytosine was also administered initially along with amphotericin-B. The pulmonary lesions resolved completely whereas the cryptococcomas reduced in number.
