Abstract：
:Some epidemiologic, diagnostic and immunologic aspects of 93 (75 males and 18 women) cases of cryptococcosis (CRY) associated with AIDS, hospitalized in the Muñiz Hospital (MH) in Buenos Aires during 1994, were retrospectively studied. The median age (MA) of the patients under study was 28 years (17-49 y); 30 (17-49) y for males and 23 (22-34) y for women. Intravenous drug addiction (34% of patients) and homo/bisexuality in men (17%) were the most frequent risk factors for HIV infection. The MA of these groups were 27.5 (17-41) y and 34 (25-41) y, respectively. Microscopic CSF examination with India ink and the blood cultures (lysis-centrifugation) achieved the diagnosis of CRY in 67 (72%) and 16 (17%) patients, respectively. At diagnosis, the median titers for Cryptococcus neoformans capsular antigen were 1/1,000, 1/100 and 1/1 in serum, CSF and urine, respectively. Sixty five strains of C. neoformans were insolated from clinical samples; all were identified at variety neoformans employing the culture medium proposed by Salkin & Hurd and the D-proline assimilation test. At diagnosis, CD4+ lymphocytes counts were < 50/microliter in 46 patients (83.63%), and were between 51 and 200/microliter in 9 (16.4%). The CD4+/CD8+ ratio was < 1 in all patients. Most patients were born (83%) and lived at diagnosis (96%) in Buenos Aires (Bs As) city, Bs As outskirts towns and cities located in Bs As province.
