AB This report describes the gross, histopathological, immunocytochemical
and electron microscopic findings in a cat with systemic cryptococcosis
and feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) infection. Lymphadenopathy and
cloudiness of leptomeninges were the major gross findings. Numerous
cryptococcal yeasts were found in lymph nodes, brain, and lung, and were
less common in the kidney and the eye. The inflammatory reaction varied
in intensity and cell type (mononuclear through granulomatous) depending
on the organ involved. Yeasts were mainly within phagocytes as revealed
by electron microscopy. Some inflammatory cells were
immunocytochemically-stained with anti-CD3 antibodies.
