Prosthetic Joint Infections Due to Histoplasma capsulatum: A Report of 3 Cases
Mayo Clinic Proceedings: Innovations, Quality & Outcomes, 2021 Histoplasma capsulatum causes pneumonia and multisystemic disease in humans. Musculoskeletal involvement in histoplasmosis is most often tenosynovitis and rarely septic arthritis. Even more uncommon is the involvement of prosthetic joints.
