Ecology of Cryptococcus neoformans in Vietnam

2019-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Cryptococcal meningitis is an infection with Cryptococcus species; almost all disease occurs in immunosuppressed patients due to C. neoformans. Cryptococcus spp are environmental saprophytes; the ability to cause disease is considered an accident of adaptation to their ecological niche. In Southeast Asia, cryptococcal meningitis in immunocompetent individuals is well-described and is almost always due to the C. ne...
