Abstract:
Reports of a few apparently autochthonous cases of human histoplasmosis and results of epidemiological research suggested the autochthonous presence of the disease in Italy. Identifying two new histologically documented cases of Italian patients, who had never been abroad, and, the positive results of a histoplasmin reactivity survey carried out in the Province of Cremona, Italy confirmed this possibility.
