Criptococoma pulmonar gigante en paciente inmunocompetente: reporte de caso
. Lung cryptococcosis is a rare entity whose epidemiology hasn’t been entirely reported in Mexico. It is frequently found as a complication of HIV or other cases of immunosuppression. We present a case of a young immunocompetent man who debuted with neurological manifestations and was later found to have a giant lung cryptococcoma. This is a particularly interesting case because although the clinical manifestations were normal, the patient was not immunocompromised and the lung damage was important with later development of meningitis that led to complications and a lung resection.
