  • Title: Meningitis with papillitis, choroiditis, and hearing loss: an unusual presentation of cryptococcosis in HIV infection.
    Author: Satish KS, Murthy KR, Yadav N, Murthy RA.
    Journal: AIDS Read; 2006 Dec; 16(12):679-80, 682. PubMed ID: 17195326.
    Abstract:
    Cryptococcosis is a common opportunistic infection in immunosuppressed patients. We present a case of cryptococcal meningitis with bilateral papillitis, multifocal choroiditis, and sensorineural hearing loss. The ocular manifestations present in this patient were unusual. The management of such cases poses a challenge because blindness and deafness can be the morbid sequelae.
