Adrenal Insufficiency due to Disseminated Cryptococcus in an Immunocompetent Individual
Primary adrenal insufficiency due to infiltrative fungal infections, such as Cryptococcus neoformans, is rare, particularly in immunocompetent patients. We present a case of an immunocompetent 61‐year‐old man who presented with bilateral adrenal enlargement and adrenal insufficiency, with a 3‐month history of generalised fatigue, weight loss and ...
