Cryptococcal sepsis in small vessel vasculitis.
While meningoencephalitis due to cryptococcus is well known in immunocompromised patients, disseminated cryptococcosis and cryptococcemia is rare outside the setting of advanced HIV infection. We report a case of disseminated cryptococcosis occurring in a patient with Wegener's granulomatosis on immunosuppressive medications.
