Histoplasmosis is a fungal disease that is seen throughout the world. It is the most common systemic fungal infection in North America, and it is endemic in the Mississippi, Ohio, and St Lawrence River valleys. Its radiographic and clinical spectrum ranges from a totally self-limited disease with minimal or no radiographic findings to a rapidly progressive, disseminated, and sometimes fatal disease. The article discusses the various aspects of thoracic histoplasmosis with emphasis on the radiographic findings.
We have presented the microbiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment of disseminated histoplasmosis. Emphasis is presented on the manifestations in the HIV infected patient.
