  • Title: Pancoast's syndrome due to pulmonary infection with Cryptococcus neoformans variety gattii.
    Author: Mitchell DH, Sorrell TC.
    Journal: Clin Infect Dis; 1992 May; 14(5):1142-4. PubMed ID: 1600018.
    Abstract:
    Immunocompetent hosts usually do not require antifungal therapy for pulmonary cryptococcosis. We present a case of right lung mass and Pancoast's syndrome due to locally invasive Cryptococcus neoformans variety gattii in a normal host. Lobectomy followed by therapy with amphotericin B and flucytosine was curative.
