Cryptococcal pneumonia in a human immunodeficiency virus-negative patient: A case report

Figure 1 Multiple modes and areas of patchy increased density were evident in the upper left lung.

Figure 2 Hematoxylin and eosin and periodic-acid-Schiff-stained lung tissue sections highlighted the presence of granulomatous inflammation containing yeast-like microbes that were surrounded by clear halos within multinucleated giant cells and in intercellular spaces.

Figure 3 Multiple modes and areas of patchy increased density were evident in the upper left lung, with no significant changes relative to Figure 1.

Figure 4 Multiple modes and areas of patchy increased density were evident in the upper left lung, with significant reductions relative to Figure 3.

Figure 5 A small cable-like area of increased density was evident in the upper left lung, consistent with a > 90% reduction in the mass relative to the previous examination.
