Hereby, we report a rare case of isolated pulmonary cryptosporidiosis in a 75-year-old HIV-negative patient with metastatic carcinoma of the stomach who was managed conservatively with hemostatic radiotherapy for palliative care. The patient had presented with cough with expectoration for 2 months. Sputum microscopic examination was suggestive of pulmonary cryptosporidiosis. There was no evidence of intestinal cryptosporidiosis. Therapy for pulmonary cryptosporidiosis was started with tablet nitazoxanide. The patient succumbed to the disease few days later following discharge. Although rare, patients with disseminated gastrointestinal malignancy can potentially have isolated pulmonary cryptosporidiosis.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/tp.tp_41_20","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,13]],"date-time":"2021-05-13T03:34:50Z","timestamp":1620876890000},"page":"53-55","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Pulmonary cryptosporidiosis in a case of adenocarcinoma of stomach"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Kavita","family":"Chaudhari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"B.","family":"Gurushankari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nonika","family":"Rajkumari","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Noyal Mariya","family":"Joseph","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anandhi","family":"Amaranathan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sureshkumar","family":"Sathasivam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Deepak","family":"Barathi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vikram","family":"Kate","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R2-12-20240909","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"145","DOI":"10.1128\/CMR.15.1.145-154.2002","article-title":"Epidemiology and clinical features of Cryptosporidium infection in immunocompromised patients","volume":"15","author":"Hunter","year":"2002","journal-title":"Clin Microbiol Rev"},{"key":"R3-12-20240909","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"575","DOI":"10.1128\/CMR.00115-13","article-title":"The evolution of respiratory cryptosporidiosis: Evidence for transmission by inhalation","volume":"27","author":"Sponseller","year":"2014","journal-title":"Clin Microbiol Rev"},{"key":"R4-12-20240909","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"69","DOI":"10.4103\/0970-2113.173085","article-title":"Pulmonary cryptosporidiosis in an immunocompetent host treated successfully with nitazoxanide","volume":"33","author":"Kumar","year":"2016","journal-title":"Lung India"},{"key":"R5-12-20240909","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"267","DOI":"10.4103\/0377-4929.48942","article-title":"Pulmonary cryptosporidiosis in HIV negative, immunocompromised host","volume":"52","author":"Shrikhande","year":"2009","journal-title":"Indian J Pathol Microbiol"},{"key":"R6-12-20240909","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"581","DOI":"10.3109\/00365548709032426","article-title":"Pulmonary cryptosporidiosis occurring in a bone marrow transplant patient","volume":"19","author":"Kibbler","year":"1987","journal-title":"Scand J Infect Dis"},{"key":"R7-12-20240909","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1366","DOI":"10.1086\/652140","article-title":"Respiratory cryptosporidiosis in HIV-seronegative children in Uganda: Potential for respiratory transmission","volume":"50","author":"Mor","year":"2010","journal-title":"Clin Infect Dis"},{"key":"R8-12-20240909","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"195","DOI":"10.1515\/jom-1989-890211","article-title":"Bronchial and gastrointestinal cryptosporid iosis in AIDS","volume":"89","author":"Goodstein","year":"1989","journal-title":"J Am Osteopath Assoc"}],"container-title":["Tropical Parasitology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/tp.TP_41_20","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,27]],"date-time":"2026-08-27T15:13:55Z","timestamp":1787843635000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/tp.TP_41_20"}},"subtitle":["A rare case report"],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,1]]},"references-count":7,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/tp.tp_41_20","relation":{},"ISSN":["2229-5070"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2229-5070","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,1]]}}}
