We report a severe case of rhinothecal cryptococcoma in a 13-year-old female African Grey Parrot (). The bird was born and bred in captivity in Portugal. The beak was deformed and showed several round soft masses, and microscopic examination revealed the presence of cells suggestive for . Phenotypic and molecular analyses identified the obtained yeast culture as (AFLP5/VGIII). By phylogenetic analysis the parrot strain clustered with clinical strains from Mexico.
我们报告了一只13岁雌性非洲灰鹦鹉患严重鼻鞘隐球菌瘤的病例。这只鸟在葡萄牙人工饲养繁殖。其喙部变形,有几个圆形软肿块,显微镜检查发现存在提示为……的细胞。表型和分子分析确定所获得的酵母培养物为新型隐球菌(AFLP5/VGIII)。通过系统发育分析,鹦鹉菌株与来自墨西哥的临床新型隐球菌菌株聚集在一起。
