| dc.description.abstractenglish | Histoplasmosis is a fungal disease usually occurring in endemic areas that can affect immuno-impaired patients in whom pulmonary involvement is the rule. We present the case of an 18 year-old immunocompetent, male patient, resident of the State of Florida, who showed signs of mononucleosis syndrome that included odynophagia, cervical adenomegaly, sporadic fever and rash; however, no pulmonary involvement or visceromegaly were present. Faced with this atypical and unexpected clinical picture, histoplasmosis infection was eventually diagnosed following cervical lymph-node biopsy. Disseminated histoplasmosis may have unexpected manifestations, as is pointed out in the case described below. | spa |
