Two cases of crytococcal meningitis occurred in pregnancy. Amphotericin B was administered in the first trimester in one case, and amphotericin B and flucytosine (5-fluorocytosine) were administered in the second trimester in the second. Both cases had good fetal and maternal outcome. Combined therapy for cryptococcal infections in pregnancy is discussed.
