Signs and symptoms of serious infection may be nonspecific, and early diagnosis and institution of antifungal therapy is essential to decrease morbidity and mortality in this patient population. In a symptomatic individual, invasive procedures are often required to establish a microbiologic diagnosis, and histopathologic examination of tissue by light and electron microscopy is often the first indication of a serious fungal infection in an AIDS patien
