A Case of Disseminated Cryptococcal Infection and Concurrent Lung Tuberculosis in a Patient under Steroid Therapy for Interstitial Pneumonia

<div>Serial changes in chest computed tomography findings. (a) Computed tomography (CT) scan taken 3 months before admission, showing reticular opacities and small cystic airspaces predominantly in subpleural regions. Mediastinal emphysema is also visible. (b) CT scan taken at admission, showing minimal mediastinal emphysema without major signs of pneumonia. Small centrilobular nodules are visible in the right upper lobe (arrowhead). (c) CT scan taken on the 20th day of hospitalization, showing consolidation in the right upper lobe (arrowheads). (d) CT scan taken on the 77th day of hospitalization, showing increased consolidation size with emergence of diffuse ground-glass opacities in both lungs.</div>
