CSF C/S for Fungus

CSF Culture and Sensitivity for Fungus identifies fungal infections, such as Cryptococcal meningitis, in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). A lumbar puncture collects CSF under sterile conditions, and the sample is tested using culture, India ink staining, and antigen detection (e.g., Cryptococcus antigen). Preparation involves fasting and proper asepsis. Risks include headache, bleeding, or infection from the lumbar puncture. Positive results confirm fungal infection, guiding treatment. Factors like prior antifungal therapy or contamination may affect accuracy.
