Summary : The cryptococcal infection of the larynx is uncommon. We present a case of a 65-year-old woman who was seen because of chronic hoarseness. Direct laryngoscopy revealed an infected lesion of the laryngeal vestibule. Histologic examination showed yeasts surrounding by capsules allowing a diagnosis of laryngeal infection by cryptococcus neoformans. The patient had also meningitis and pulmonary localisation. We have undergone a risk factors research and this results in finding out that HIV serology was positive. She received a treatment with amphotericin B followed by fluconazole during 6 months with complete recovery of her laryngeal infection. The patient died 11 months after the AIDS diagnostic.
