Widely disseminated cryptococcosis was found on autopsy in a 50-year-old alcoholic man. The spleen, lungs, CNS, liver, kidney, and lymph nodes were all involved. In his clinical course, the patient showed no signs of immunologic anergy. His terminal hospital course resulted directly from end-stage liver disease and renal failure. The cryptococcal infection was of the nongranulomatous, diffuse type with little or no inflammatory response, which probably explains the lack of symptoms.
在一名50岁的酗酒男性尸检中发现广泛播散性隐球菌病。脾脏、肺、中枢神经系统、肝脏、肾脏和淋巴结均受累。在其临床病程中，患者未表现出免疫无反应迹象。他最终的住院病程直接由终末期肝病和肾衰竭导致。隐球菌感染为非肉芽肿性弥漫型，炎症反应轻微或无炎症反应，这可能解释了症状的缺乏。
