Cutaneous cryptococcal infection presenting as vulvar lesion.

K S Blocher1, J A Weeks, R C Noble.   

Abstract

A woman aged 60, who had been immunosuppressed since receiving a renal transplant 17 years before, developed a painless ulcerated lesion on her right labia majora. Cryptococcus neoformans was demonstrated by culture and biopsy of the lesion. This is the first reported case of a genital skin lesion caused by C neoformans.
