Early diagnosis of gastrointestinal cryptococcosis in Crohn's disease is difficult due to the lack of specific symptoms and sign or mimicking an exacerbation of Crohn's disease. Seeking for other site of involvement in disseminated cryptococcosis including lung or central nervous system as well as detection of serum cryptococcal antigen would be helpful for early diagnosis and management.
