기관지폐암으로 오인된 면역 정상 환자의폐 효모균증 1예 = A Case of Pulmonary Cryptococcosis Mimicking Bronchogenic Lung Cancer in an Immunocompetent Patient: A Review of the Literature

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

We experienced a 59-year-old immunocompetent female patient who complained progressive cough. A bronchoscopic examination revealed an endobronchial mass protruding from the left lower lobe and occluding anterior-basal segment bronchus. Bronchial biopsy and endobronchial ultrasound guided transbronchial needle aspiration were consistent with cryptococcal infection. However, the response of medical therapy was an unsuccessful. Finally, the patient underwent left lower lobectomy with lymph node dissection. We report a case of pulmonary cryptococcosis mimicking bronchogenic lung cancer, and surgical therapy with antifungal treatment resulted in successful resolution of the pneumonia.
