Clinical and computed tomography (CT) characteristics of pulmonary nodules caused by cryptococcal infection

Infection and Drug Resistance Oct 20, 2021

Chen F, Liu YB, Fu BJ, et al. - Researchers retrospectively analyzed data from patients with confirmed pulmonary cryptococcosis (PC) in order to describe their clinical and computed tomography (CT) characteristics.

  • Among 47 patients, 25 (53.2%) had single nodules and 22 (46.8%) patients had multiple nodules, with similar clinical characteristics.

  • Relative to multiple nodules, the solitary ones were smaller, more scattered, but less necrotic.

  • PC should be considered as one of the differential diagnoses in cases with solitary nodules with air bronchogram or vacuole, satellite lesions, or halo sign.
