  • Title: [Cerebrospinal fluid diagnosis of meningeal cryptococcosis].
    Author: Kaps M, Burkhardt E, Krauss H, Hornig CR, Weiss R.
    Journal: Fortschr Neurol Psychiatr; 1985 Dec; 53(12):442-6. PubMed ID: 3908261.
    Abstract:
    Cryptococcosis must be taken into account as a cause of basal meningitis. Along with a case report, clinical signs and guiding cerebrospinal fluid findings are evaluated. Special attention is paid to CSF-cytology, which provides important information in terms of identification and clinical course of the disease. For the first time C. neoformans, yielded from CSF-samples, was investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy, and compared with yeast cultured in laboratory.
