We report on a case of dual infection with Cryptococcus neoformans and Streptococcus pneumoniae in the cerebrospinal fluid of a patient with AIDS. To our knowledge this represents the first case to be reported in the English literature. In immunocompromised patients the importance of performing both the Gram- and India-ink stain and cryptococcal antigen test on CSF specimens with completely normal biochemical and cellular parameters is emphasized.
我们报告了一例艾滋病患者脑脊液中新型隐球菌和肺炎链球菌双重感染的病例。据我们所知，这是英文文献中报道的首例此类病例。强调了在免疫功能低下患者中，对于生化和细胞参数完全正常的脑脊液标本，同时进行革兰氏染色和印度墨汁染色以及隐球菌抗原检测的重要性。
