dc.description.abstractA 59-year-old HIV-negative Ugandan man presented with a long-standing history of respiratory symptoms and was found to have an intra-cavitary pulmonary cryptococoma by chest imaging and sputum culture. The serum cryptococcal antigen was negative. The sputum Xpert® MTB RIF Ultra assay was negative. He was previously treated for cavitary pulmonary tuberculosis. The patient had poorly controlled diabetes (HbA1c, 9.3%). The patient was successfully treated with oral fluconazole.en_US
