Abstract
We report a case of an apparently immunocompetent male, who presented with a painless nodule over the upper abdominal wall. He gave a history of exposure to pigeon droppings. Cryptococcus neoformans was isolated from the lesion and no underlying disorder could be detected. He improved on treatment with oral Fluoconazole.
