Abstract
Primary pulmonary cryptococcosis is difficult to diagnose because the symptoms and radiologic findings are non-specific. Further, pulmonary cryptococcal infections are extremely rare in individuals with normal immunity. This case report describes a case of primary pulmonary cryptococcosis in an immunocompetent individual who presented with left upper lobe collapse due to endobronchial occlusion.
