Abstract
Cryptococcoma of the sacrum was the initial presentation of systemic crypto coccosis in a patient on chronic steroid therapy for autoimmune hepatitis. The bone lesion was the only overt manifestation of systemic cryptococcal d isease, which preceded other clinical manifestations and led to the subsequ ent diagnosis of systemic infection.
