Аннотация
PURPOSE/METHODS: We report the case of a 31 year old male with presumed cryptococcal choroiditis associated with cryptococcal meningitis and AIDS. Multiple yellowish-whitish small choroidal lesions, retinal hemorrhages and cotton-wool spots appeared in the posterior pole associated with vision loss. We also carried out differential diagnosis with other frequent diseases and a review of the treatments.
RESULTS/CONCLUSIONS: Cryptococcus neoformans is an opportunistic fungus with a predilection for infecting the meninges in patients with Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome AIDS (10%). Ocular manifestation usually includes cranial nerve palsies or papilledema secondary to increased intracranial pressure. Cryptococcal choroiditis is less frequent (5% of patients with meningitis).
