Treatment consisted of amphotericin B at 1\u00a0mg\/kg\/day or fluconazole at 800\u00a0mg\/day for first 6\u00a0weeks, followed by fluconazole at 400\u00a0mg\/day for the subsequent 12\u00a0months. Response to the therapy has been slow. Because of the occurrence of outbreaks and its high morbidity and mortality rates, physicians must be aware of this complication in transplant recipients to avoid delays in diagnosis and to provide prompt management.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/tid.12371","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,2,17]],"date-time":"2015-02-17T05:45:11Z","timestamp":1424151911000},"page":"463-466","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["A rare case of <i><scp>C<\/scp>ryptococcus gattii<\/i> pneumonia in a renal transplant patient"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"F.","family":"Cicora","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Renal Transplantation Hospital de Alta Complejidad Pte JD Per\u00f3n Formosa Argentina"},{"name":"Foundation for Research and Assistance in Kidney Disease \u2013 FINAER Buenos Aires Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.","family":"Petroni","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Renal Transplantation Hospital de Alta Complejidad Pte JD Per\u00f3n Formosa Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"P.","family":"Formosa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Renal Transplantation Hospital de Alta Complejidad Pte JD Per\u00f3n Formosa Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J.","family":"Roberti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Foundation for Research and Assistance in Kidney Disease \u2013 FINAER Buenos Aires Argentina"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,5,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/ajt.12116"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_1","first-page":"61","article-title":"Cryptococcal infections in non\u2010HIV\u2010infected patients","volume":"124","author":"Pappas PG","year":"2013","journal-title":"Trans Am Clin Climatol Assoc"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1503\/cmaj.111346"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/myc.12084"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s40265-013-0037-z"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1843.2012.02150.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1130-1406(08)70019-6"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/649858"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/524738"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/CMR.00126-13"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0088875"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2013\/675213"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_14_1","first-page":"89","article-title":"Genotipificaci\u00f3n de aislamientos cl\u00ednicos del complejo Cryptococcus neoformans\/Cryptococcus gattii obtenidos en el Hospital \u00abDr. Julio C.
