Cryptococcosis remains a major opportunistic infection in AIDS in sub-Saharan Africa, but few data exist from its western part. We report data from Bobo Dioulasso University Hospital, Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso, with a steady decline from 14 to two cases per year from 2002 to 2010 which contrasts with the increase (from 147 to 3940) of patients on antiretroviral therapy (ART). Better ART availability decreases the incidence of cryptococcosis in Burkina Faso.
在撒哈拉以南非洲， cryptococcosis 仍然是艾滋病的主要机会性感染，但来自其西部地区的数据很少。我们报告了来自布基纳法索博博迪乌拉索大学医院的数据，从 2002 年到 2010 年，每年的病例数从 14 例稳定下降到 2 例，而接受抗逆转录病毒治疗 (ART) 的患者人数却从 147 例增加到 3940 例。更好的 ART 可获得性降低了布基纳法索 cryptococcosis 的发病率。
