Abstract excerpt

Cryptococcosis is an invasive fungal infection that mainly affects the lungs and central nervous system. While patients with cell-mediated immunodeficiency are at high risk of developing cryptococcosis, there have been increasing reports of cryptococcosis in immunocompetent individuals with no underlying conditions. Herein, we report a case of cryptococcal meningitis in a 55-year-old apparently immunocompetent...
