"A case of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) associated with pulmonary cryptococcosis which was successfully treated with fluconazole (FCZ) and flucytosine (5-FC) is described."4.78[A case report--pulmonary cryptococcosis associated with systemic lupus erythematosus and review of 44 cases in Japan]. ( Kano, S; Minato, N; Saito, K; Saito, T; Saku, N; Sato, M; Suzuki, N; Takeda, A, 1993)
"We describe a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus diagnosed with simultaneous cryptococcal and TB meningitis who had a poor response to intravenous liposomal amphotericin B and fluconazole, but was successfully treated with intraventricular amphotericin B, in addition to anti-TB therapy."1.43Simultaneous cryptococcal and tuberculous meningitis in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus.

"We report a 33-year-old woman with systemic lupus erythematosus undergoing immunotherapy infected with combined invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and pulmonary cryptococcosis diagnosed by video-assisted thoracic surgery lung biopsy and she was successfully treated as a result of early diagnosis and treatment."1.33Invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and pulmonary cryptococcosis really coexist in immunocompromised host.

" Ventricular drainage and amphotericin B intraventricularly via an implanted tube into dilated ventricle could improve the clinical condition of serious cryptococcal meningitis and decrease the dosage of systemic use of amphotericin B, therefore, reduce the side-effects of the drugs."1.31[A clinical study of 26 cases of cryptococcal meningitis].
