Pancoast's syndrome due to pulmonary infection with Cryptococcus neoformans variety gattii.

D H Mitchell1, T C Sorrell.   

Abstract

Immunocompetent hosts usually do not require antifungal therapy for pulmonary cryptococcosis. We present a case of right lung mass and Pancoast's syndrome due to locally invasive Cryptococcus neoformans variety gattii in a normal host. Lobectomy followed by therapy with amphotericin B and flucytosine was curative.
