Cholangitis due to Blastomyces dermatitidis

Gastroenterology, 1989
A 70-yr-old woman presented with nonspecific complaints and had findings of a cholestatic liver enzyme pattern and a dilated left intrahepatic ductal system by radiographic imaging. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography revealed multiple irregular flat stones and a fixed filling defect of the left hepatic duct.

A case of solitary Blastomyces dermatitidis meningitis

Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2011
We present a case of a 35 year-old male with Blastomyces dermatitidis meningitis as the primary presentation of blastomycosis infection, without evidence of involvement outside the CNS at time of discharge. We focus on the magnetic resonance imaging findings, with histopathologic correlation.

Polysaccharides of Blastomyces Dermatitidis

The Journal of Immunology, 1940
Summary and Conclusions Chemical analysis of Blastomyces dermatitidis indicates that this fungus contains at least two distinct polysaccharides. Minute quantities of these polysaccharides fix complement with sera prepared by immunizing rabbits with whole Blastomyces dermatitidis.

The fine structure of the microconidium of blastomyces dermatitidis

Mycopathologia et Mycologia Applicata, 1974
Aspects of the fine structure of the microconidium of the mycelial phase of the dimorphic fungal pathogenBlastomyces dermatitidis as seen by techniques of scanning and transmission electron microscopy are described and illustrated by electron micrographs. The conidia ofB.

Antigens and chemical composition of Blastomyces dermatitidis

Mycopathologia, 1982
‘Without these tools (skin-test and complement fixation antigens for epidemiological, diagnostic, and prognostic use) we are at least 50 years behind in our defining of the disease blastomycosis’ (63). This statement by Rippon et al. emphasizes the need for a well defined antigen or group of antigens from Blastomyces dermatitidis, not only for the two ...

Role of the conidium in dimorphism of Blastomyces dermatitidis

Mycopathologia, 1978
Fine details of yeastlike cell development of Blastomyces dermatitidis from its conidium are described and illustrated by electron micrographs. When cultured in an enriched medium at 37C, conidia of two strains of B. dermatitidis readily underwent ultrastructural changes consistent with mycelial to yeast dimorphism.

Cerebral Blastomyces dermatitidis infection in a cat

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 2007
Abstract Case Description—An 8-year-old domestic shorthair cat was evaluated because of signs of depression, circling, and visual deficits. Clinical Findings—The cat had no cutaneous lesions, and results of an ophthalmologic examination and thoracic radiography were within reference limits.

Studies on the molecular ecology of Blastomyces dermatitidis

Mycopathologia, 2001
The microecology of Blastomyces dermatitidis, the dimorphic etiologic agent of the potentially fatal systemic fungal infection, blastomycosis, is not well defined. Blastomyces dermatitidis may occur periodically at natural sites, perhaps aided by rotting organic material, animal droppings and physical changes.

Splenic Abscess Caused by Blastomyces dermatitidis

Southern Medical Journal, 1986
We have reported a case of fungal splenic abscess caused by Blastomyces dermatitidis. Splenic abscess is an uncommon disorder, and fungus as the causative organism is rare. The diagnosis of splenic abscess can be rapidly made with radionuclide and CT scanning and ultrasonography.
