Description

Zhongshuo Liu and four colleagues report a case pairing two rare conditions, in a twenty twenty-four paper. The patient had idiopathic eosinophilia, a high count of one white cell type with no found cause. The patient also had cryptococcal meningitis, a fungal brain infection that usually strikes people with weak immune systems. The authors state the pairing has not been described before anywhere in the world. The case may help doctors think of hidden immune faults when such odd pairs appear.
