摘要

一名 42 岁的男性因干咳、呼吸困难和发烧前来就诊。他接受了计算机断层扫描，结果发现右肺有大面积肿块。活检显示为新生隐球菌。他接受了 4 个月的抗真菌治疗，但临床和放射学症状均无改善。18F- 氟脱氧葡萄糖正电子发射断层扫描/计算机断层扫描（18F-FDG PET/CT）显示右肺有多发肺结节。18F-FDG PET/CT 确定了残余真菌感染的诊断，并排除了肺外受累。

Extensive Pulmonary Cryptococcosis as a Presentation in an Immunocompetent Young Male: A Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography Finding.

A 42-year-old male presented with a dry cough, breathlessness, and fever. He underwent a computed tomography that revealed large consolidation in the right lung. Biopsy revealed Cryptococcus neoformans. He was on antifungal for 4 months with no clinicoradiological improvement. ¹⁸F- fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT) showed consolidations in the right lung with multiple lung nodules. ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT ascertains the diagnosis of residual fungal infection and rules out extrapulmonary involvement.
