- Abstract
- Cryptococcal meningoencephalitis is one of the most cornInon fungal infections of the central nervous system, which mainly affects immunocompromised hosts, especially AIDS patients and patients with long-term steroid therapy. In advanced cases, it causes various complications such as encephailitis, hydrocephalus, and even death if not treated or inadequately treated. Authors have treated a case of cryptococcal meningoencephalitis with focal cerebellar lesion, whose primary infection sources were thought to be right frontal sinus and the ethmoidal sinus, with combination chemotherapy of amphotericine B and flucytosine.
