Blastomyces dermatitidis Pneumonia in an adolescent

Clinical Microbiology Newsletter, 2003
Abstract Fungal etiology as a cause of pneumonia should be considered in children and adolescents who may be part of a family or group cluster of pneumonia. Fungi should also be considered and appropriate diagnostic studies ordered in those patients who have specific factors (such as travel, recreational or occupational exposure) for development of ...

Extrapulmonary Thoracic Disease Caused by Blastomyces dermatitidis

Chest, 1994
A case of blastomycosis is reported involving the mediastinum and compromising the plexus brachialis. The pathology, pathophysiology, and treatment of this patient and of a previously reported patient are discussed and compared with the characteristics of extrapulmonary thoracic disease caused by histoplasmosis.

The Ecology of Blastomyces dermatitidis

1992
Understanding the epidemiology of blastomycosis depends on comprehension of the ecology of Blastomyces dermatitidis. This interrelationship, without a doubt, is real. There is a paucity of data on both the ecology and the epidemiology of this disease. The present assumptions of these concerns either are based on analogy with other systemic pathogenic ...

1994
Blastomycosis is a systemic fungal infection caused by Blastomyces dermatitidis. The manifestations range from self-limited infections, focal cutaneous or pulmonary lesions, destructive foci in various organs to rapidly progressive and fatal infection.1 The vast majority of blastomycosis cases begin from a pulmonary portal of entry2,3 although a few ...

Taxonomy and Biology of Blastomyces dermatitidis

1992
Blastomyces dermatitidis is a dimorphic fungus, growing in the environment in a mycelial form and in mammalian tissue in a yeast form. In common with other dimorphic fungi, the life cycle of B. dermatitidis is not dependent upon entering a living host and establishing infection and disease.
