Fungal osteomyelitis is a rare opportunistic infection. It exhibits some clinical and radiological similarities to several other bone pathologies. A diagnostic delay may result in significant increase in morbidity. We report a case of a 37-year-old man with underlying hypogammaglobulinaemia presented with isolated cryptococcal osteomyelitis of the femur.
真菌性骨髓炎是一种罕见的机会性感染。它在临床和影像学上与其他几种骨骼病变有一些相似之处。诊断延迟可能导致发病率显著增加。我们报告一例37岁男性病例，该患者患有潜在的低丙种球蛋白血症，表现为孤立性股骨隐球菌骨髓炎。
