As many as 15% of cases of systemic infection with Cryptococcus neoformans have
cutaneous involvement. The existence of primary cutaneous disease is controversial. We
report a patient with cutaneous cryptococcosis without evidence of visceral involvement at
the time of diagnosis. She has been followed up for 5 years and remains free of systemic
involvement. Cutaneous cryptococcosis does not always signify systemic disease.
