Histoplasmosis, a common fungal infection in North America, presents a wide range of thoracic manifestations. This article emphasizes understanding its diverse radiographic findings.

Area of Science:

  • Mycology
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Histoplasmosis is a globally prevalent fungal infection.
  • It is the most common systemic fungal infection in North America.
  • Endemic regions include the Mississippi, Ohio, and St Lawrence River valleys.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To discuss the various aspects of thoracic histoplasmosis.
  • To emphasize the radiographic findings associated with the disease.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical and radiographic presentations of histoplasmosis.
  • Focus on thoracic manifestations.

Main Results:

  • Histoplasmosis exhibits a spectrum from self-limited to rapidly progressive and disseminated disease.
