Cryptococcoma

Cryptococcoma (mucinous pseudocyst): a parenchymal collection that occurs almost exclusively in AIDS patients. Much less common than cryptococcal meningitis. No enhancement of the lesion or the meninges. Usually, 3–10 mm in diameter and are frequently located in the basal ganglia (due to spread by small perforating vessels)
