Abstract

Disseminated fungal infections are often seen in immunocompromised patients. Here we present a case of a previously healthy woman presenting with cervical myeloradiculopathy found to have two separate fungal infections in the setting of depressed CD4 cell counts and a genetic mutation predisposing to invasive fungal infections.
