From Diagnostic Challenge to Clinical Success: Rapid Multiplex PCR Identification of Cryptosporidium in HIV‐Associated Refractory Diarrhea: A Case Report [PDF]
Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Cryptosporidiosis remains a challenge in people with HIV despite its decreased incidence in developed countries. We report a case of severe diarrhea in a person with HIV where Gram stain findings prioritized cryptosporidium in the differential diagnosis.

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1996 Popularization of the acid-fast stain in the early 1980s for detecting Cryptosporidium species in stool specimens set the stage for recognition of Cyclospora species. Between 1986 and 1993, there were nine reports linking diarrheal illness in more than 200 immunocompetent and immunocompromised children and adults to an unidentified, acid-fast organism ...
