Meningitis caused by Cryptococcus neoformans var. gattii and var. neoformans in Papua New Guinea.

Meningitis caused by Cryptococcus neoformans var. gattii and var. neoformans in Papua New Guinea.

Eleven cases of cryptococcal meningitis were diagnosed and biotyped from September 1991 to August 1992 in Papua New Guinea (PNG). Seven isolates were Cryptococcus neoformans var. gattii from paediatric and adult patients, one with diabetes mellitus and 4 were C. neoformans var. neoformans from adult...
