Pulmonary Coccidioidomycosis

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2008
Coccidioidal infection can manifest as pulmonary or extrapulmonary disease. Pulmonary coccidioidomycosis occurs in 95% of all cases and can be divided into three main categories: primary, complicated, and residual pulmonary coccidioidomycosis. The primary infection occurs with inhalation of airborne arthroconidia. As few as 10 arthroconidia are capable

Coccidioidomycosis

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 1989
Coccidioidomycosis is a largely self-limited fungal respiratory illness. However, the infrequent case of progressive or disseminated disease can be devastating. As international travel to and from endemic areas increases, physicians unfamiliar with the disease may be called upon to recognize and treat serious coccidioidal infections.

Coccidioidomycosis

Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 2016
Coccidioides immitis and C posadasii are pathogenic dimorphic fungi responsible for causing coccidioidomycosis in the Southwestern United States and Central and South America. Antifungal therapy is beneficial and entails careful periodic assessment with therapies ranging from none or short courses of therapy to prolonged antifungal therapy.

Coccidioidomycosis results from inhalation of arthroconidia of Coccidioides spp., which are soil fungi endemic to the south-western United States of America and parts of Latin America. Most infections are asymptomatic, but primary infection may resemble community-acquired pneumonia, sometimes with hypersensitivity manifestations such as erythema ...

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2004
Coccidioidomycosis is a fungal infection caused by Coccidiodes. The fungus has a limited geographic distribution but the disease can be seen anywhere. Primary infection is usually self-limited; however, when a large dose of fungus is inhaled or in an immunosuppressed host, the patient may develop overwhelming infection, including ARDS, in a brief ...
