We present the first case of encephalitis caused by Cryptococcus albidus duo to AIDS. In addition, we give an overview of the literature of extra-dermal infection cases caused by C. albidus. In the 21 cases, HIV and organ transplantation were important risk factors especially in recent 20 years. Fungal culture or India ink preparations are the best way to demonstrate C. albidus in both serum and CSF.
我们报告首例由浅白隐球菌导致艾滋病患者发生脑炎的病例。此外，我们对浅白隐球菌引起的皮肤外感染病例的文献进行了综述。在这21例病例中，HIV和器官移植是重要的危险因素，尤其是在最近20年。真菌培养或墨汁负染是在血清和脑脊液中证实浅白隐球菌的最佳方法。
