Disseminated cryptococcosis is a known complication of steroid therapy. Infection within the genito-urinary tract is usually assumed to be part of generalized cryptococcosis complicating a primary pulmonary focus. A case of isolated testicular cryptococcal orchitis complicating steroid therapy for relapsing polychondritis is presented. To the authors' knowledge isolated cryptococcal orchitis has not been previously described.
播散性隐球菌病是类固醇治疗已知的并发症。泌尿生殖道感染通常被认为是全身性隐球菌病的一部分，并发于原发性肺部病灶。本文报告一例复发性多软骨炎患者在接受类固醇治疗时并发孤立性睾丸隐球菌性睾丸炎的病例。据作者所知，此前尚未有孤立性隐球菌性睾丸炎的相关描述。
