  • Title: Cryptococcal pleural effusion preceding cryptococcal meningitis in AIDS.
    Author: Grum EE, Schwab R, Margolis ML.
    Journal: Am J Med Sci; 1991 May; 301(5):329-30. PubMed ID: 2021155.
    Abstract:
    The authors report a case in which a small cryptococcal pleural effusion preceded the development of severe cryptococcal meningitis in an HIV-positive patient. The appearance of an isolated transient pleural effusion is a very unusual presentation for AIDS-related complications. The authors suggest that cryptococcal infection be considered in this setting.
