Cryptococcus Neoformans: The First Reported Case of Isolation in Pigeon Excreta...
Rezende, Cátia; da Silva, Eliani Rodrigues; Gomes, Alexandre Henrique Frota; Mizziara, Renata Camacho; Silva, João Edson daCryptococcocus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii are closely related pathogenic fungi that cause pneumonia and meningitis in both immunocompromised and immunocompetent hosts. Both species are found in the environment, and are acquired via inhalation, leading to an initial pulmonary infection. We evaluated 48 air samples and 32 samples of pigeon excreta from June to August, 2007. The presence of capsule was exa...
