Description

Dissemintated case of cryptococcosis, a serious and sometimes fatal fungal disease caused by Cryptococcus neoformans, which is actually comprised of two species, Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii. C. neoformans is subdivided into two other varieties- var. neoformans and var grubii. It is believed to be acquired by inhalation of an infectious propagule from the environment. Although the exact nature of the infectious propagule is unknown, the leading hypothesis is the basidiospore created through sexual or asexual reproduction. The prevalence of cryptococcosis has been increasing over the past 20 years for many reasons, including the increase in incidence of AIDS and the expanded use of immunosuppressive drugs.
