Blastomycosis

Seminars in Roentgenology, 1996
Blastomycosis is a relatively uncommon disease, even in its endemic region. The clinical course and symptoms are highly variable; patients may be asymptomatic or present with severe, fulminant disease. Antifungal agents are effective against pulmonary and disseminated disease, but relapses and reactivation can occur.

Blastomycosis

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2003
Blastomycosis is an endemic mycoses in the central United States caused by a dimorphic fungus, Blastomyces dermatitidis, that exists in nature in mycelial phase and converts to yeast phase at body temperature. The organism may produce epidemics of infection following a point source of infection or sporadic endemic infection.

Blastomycosis

Proceedings of the American Thoracic Society, 2010
Abstract Blastomycosis is an endemic mycosis that occurs predominantly in North America in the north central United States and provinces of Canada, southern states, and those midwestern states that border the Mississippi River basin. It causes acute and chronic pneumonias and disseminated infection with cutaneous lesions as the major ...

Blastomycosis

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America
Blastomycosis is caused primarily by Blastomyces dermatitidis. The fungus is a mold in the environment, causing infection when conidia are dispersed and inhaled. In the lungs, the organism transforms into the yeast phase. Pneumonia is most common, but dissemination to skin, bones, and other organs also occurs.

Pulmonary blastomycosis

Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 1992
Pulmonary blastomycosis has a number of chest radiographic manifestations that may closely resemble those of tuberculosis, histoplasmosis, and other fungal diseases. Radiographic presentations of disease include airspace consolidation, nodular opacities, air bronchograms, masslike lesions, and military disease.

Blastomycosis

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1988
Abstract Blastomycosis, one of the endemic mycoses in the United States, is caused by the dimorphic fungus, Blastomyces dermatitidis. The organism exists in nature in the mould or mycelial phase and converts to the parasitic or yeast phase at body temperature.

Blastomycosis (North American Blastomycosis)

2021
Blastomycosis is caused by Blastomyces dermatitidis that belong to a group of thermally dimorphic fungi that can infect healthy and immunocompromised individuals. Following inhalation of mycelial fragments and spores into the lungs, Blastomyces convert into pathogenic yeast, which facilitates evasion of host immune defenses to cause pneumonia and ...

Blastomycosis

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 1997
Blastomycosis is an endemic fungal infection predominantly seen in the south central and mid-western United States and portions of Canada. The disorder is caused by Blastomyces dermatitidis, a dimorphic organism usually acquired through inhalation of aerosolized conidia.

Blastomycosis of the Eyelid

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1986
An 84-year-old man had a verrucous lesion of the left lower eyelid that caused progressive ectropion. Cultures of the lesion taken at the time of surgical excision demonstrated Blastomyces dermatitidis. Histologically, the excised tissue demonstrated pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia, a characteristic change of cutaneous blastomycosis.
