摘要：
A case of adrenal cryptococcosis diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration biopsy cytology in a 58-yr-old man is presented. The organisms were easily seen with routine modified Wright stain (Diff-Quik) as variably sized yeasts, some with a brightly eosinophilic capsule. The diagnosis was confirmed with mucicarmine and silver stains. The identification of fungi with routine cytologic stains allows a rapid presumptive diagnosis of the infectious agent, collection of material for confirmatory special stains, and prompt initiation of therapy.
