Abstract
Cryptococcal infection of central nervous system commonly involves meningitis or meningoencephalitis, but rarely mimics inflammatory myelitis. We present short segment myelitis as a dominant manifestation caused by Cryptococcus neoformans in a patient with nephrotic syndrome under immunosuppressive therapy. This case report highlights Cryptococcus neoformans as a potential etiological factor for short segment myelitis in immunocompromised hosts.
