A 66-year-old woman was admitted to the Medical College Hospital of Oita on February 23, 1988, because of headache and fever. Chest X-P and chest CT findings showed a coin lesion in r-S4. Cryptococcus neoformans was isolated from the CSF. Abnormal lymphocytes with lobulated nuclei were found in 0-5% of peripheral leukocytes. The ATLA-antibody was positive and bone marrow smear showed normal myelogram. According to these data, we diagnosed the patient as smouldering adult T-cell leukemia accompanied with pulmonary cryptococcosis and cryptococcal meningitis. C. neoformans disappeared from the CSF and cryptococcal antigen was not detectable after Amphotericin B and Flucytosine treatment. On April 1, the patient complained of a dry cough, high fever and dyspnea. A chest X-ray showed bilateral patchy infiltrations. By the methenamine silver staining, cysts of Pneumocystis carinii were found in the specimens of transbronchial lung biopsy and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. The abnormal shadow on chest X-ray disappeared after TMP-SMX and aerosolised pentamidine treatment.
