Cryptococcus neoformans var. gattii meningitis in Singapore.

T H Koh1, A L Tan, Y L Lo, H Oh.   

Abstract

We describe here two cases of Cryptococcus neoformans var. gattii meningitis that occurred in Singapore. This variety of Cryptococcus neoformans differs from the more widely known C. n. var. neoformans in its ecology and epidemiology. Infections with this variety are still rare in Singapore.
