Abstract excerpt

A population-based register of cases of cryptococcosis in patients treated in Victoria, Australia, over a 10-year period was established for studying the epidemiologic and clinical features of infection with Cryptococcus neoformans and its two varieties, gattii and neoformans. One hundred thirty-three cases of cryptococcosis were entered on the register; the incidence was 3.0 cases per 1 million population per...
