    Author: Huynh J, Saddi V, Cooper P, Cheng AT, Meyer W, Chen S, Isaacs D.
    Journal: J Pediatric Infect Dis Soc; 2020 Feb 28; 9(1):67-70. PubMed ID: 30339241.
    Abstract:
    Disease caused by Cryptococcus gattii typically manifests as meningoencephalitis or pulmonary nodules. Endobronchial lesions are rare, and most cases are caused by Cryptococcus neoformans. We describe here a case of endobronchial disease in a child caused by C gattii. The disease spectrum in this patient was notable for the discovery of anti-granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor autoantibodies.
