- W2071490151 abstract "To highlight the various morphological smear pattern in cases of subcutaneous Cryptococcus infection in healthy adults.Cryptococcus is an opportunist fungus and primary infection is acquired through respiratory tract. Dissemination by blood stream results in systemic infection. Ten to 15% of systemic infection present as cutaneous lesions. Between December 2002 and April 2004 three healthy adults presented to us consecutively with subcutaneous swelling.We diagnosed these cases on FNAC as Cryptococcus. In all the three patients there was no history of local penetrating injury and any signs or symptoms of systemic disease. They were two male and one female, immuno competent and were negative for HIV 1 & 2 tested by ELISA. The sites were right abdominal flank, occipital and left anterior upper thigh. Aspirated materials were oily fibro fatty tissue and necrotic purulent materials. Cryptococcus numbers varied in all the smears so also their size and capsule thickness. Background smear morphology and tissue reaction were also different. It could be gelatinous, granulomatous, and cellulitic response or mixed responses and this can be picked up on cytological smears. Cultures were confirmatory in all the three cases. These lesions were resolved with antifungal treatment.Our brief article highlights the morphological spectrum on FNAC smears and diagnostic problems faced in these uncommon circumstances where the aspirates were purulent and the yeasts were small, few and thin walled. In the acute inflammatory smear with occasional giant cells and/or granulomas special stains like PAS or Mucicarmine are necessary to look for budding yeast of Cryptococcus with thin neck." @default.
