Abstract

ABSTRACT Opportunistic infections like cryptococcus, mycobacteria, pneumocystis carini, candidiasis and cytomegalovirus were reported to complicate idiopathic CD4 lymphocytopenia (ICL). However, a few cases of histoplasma infection has been reported in ICL. Here we are reporting a case of adrenal histoplasmosis in a patient presented with vague abdominal pain and weight loss who was later diagnosed to be a case of idiopathic CD4 lymphocytopenia.
