Title: | Sudden death from Cryptococcal encephalitis | Authors: | Papi, L. Forni, D. Castagna, M. Becherini, F. |

The patient was admitted twice in Hospital in the weeks before the death and he was also visited at home just the same day he died, but clinical suspect of encephalitis was completely failed, despite he’d complained neurological symptoms, with subsequent medico-legal implications concerning medical malpractice. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316.2/31735 | ISBN: | 978-989-26-0173-1 (PDF) | DOI: | 10.14195/978-989-26-0173-1_71 | Rights: | open access |
