Cryptococcal antigen testing of lung tissue homogenate improves pulmonary cryptococcosis diagnosis: Two case reports
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary cryptococcosis (PC) is an opportunistic infectious disease of the respiratory system. Lung tissue biopsies, culture of respiratory samples (e.g., sputum, lung tissue, pleural fluid, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid), and cryptococcal antigen (CrAg) testing are helpful for a def...
