Cryptococcal meningitis (CM), as a life-threatening opportunistic infection, often is among cases with cell-mediated immunodeficiencies, such as AIDS, hematologic malignancies, and solid organ transplant recipients. Cryptococcal meningitis in healthy individuals is uncommon, and its detection in immunocompetent cases may be tricky because the presentation is generally more indolent than the traditional meningitis presentation, leading to late diagnosis and potential sequels. We present a CM case in an immunocompetent Iranian male patient who was treated successfully.
隐球菌性脑膜炎（CM）是一种危及生命的机会性感染，通常发生在细胞免疫缺陷的病例中，如艾滋病、血液恶性肿瘤和实体器官移植受者。健康个体中隐球菌性脑膜炎并不常见，在免疫功能正常的病例中检测可能具有挑战性，因为其表现通常比传统的脑膜炎表现更为惰性，导致诊断较晚和潜在的后遗症。我们报告了一例成功治疗的免疫功能正常的伊朗男性患者的 CM 病例。
