Pulmonary histoplasmosis: a case report
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
Abstract
Histoplasmosis is the most common of geographic mycoses; in Chile, infection caused by this dysmorphic fungus has been reported only sporadically among persons who have traveled to endemic areas. We report a healthy patient case who consulted 6 months after her trip, with chest pain as single symptom. Surgery and histological study of the pulmonary nodule showed that it was a pulmonary histoplasmosis case.
