Cryptococcal meningitis is an infrequent primary presentation of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). We report the case of a 33-year-old man with previously undiagnosed AIDS who presented with gait disturbance, acute blindness, and rapidly fatal neurologic deterioration. Cryptococcal meningitis was diagnosed by India ink smear and AIDS was diagnosed by Western Blot testing.
隐球菌性脑膜炎是获得性免疫缺陷综合征（艾滋病）一种不常见的首发表现。我们报告一例33岁男性病例，该患者此前未被诊断出患有艾滋病，表现为步态障碍、急性失明和迅速致命的神经功能恶化。通过墨汁负染涂片诊断为隐球菌性脑膜炎，通过免疫印迹试验诊断为艾滋病。
