| Abstract: | Disseminated cryptococcosis is a life-threatening infection caused by Cryptococcus neoformans and cutaneous dissemination occurs in 10-15% of patients. We report a case of a 49-y-old leukemic patient with disseminated cryptococcosis who presented with fever, headache, normal cerebrospinal fluid profile and multiple skin lesions mimicking molluscum contagiosum. |
