  • Title: Granulomatous skin lesions due to histoplasmosis in a badger (Meles meles) in Austria.
    Author: Bauder B, Kübber-Heiss A, Steineck T, Kuttin ES, Kaufman L.
    Journal: Med Mycol; 2000 Jun; 38(3):249-53. PubMed ID: 10892994.
    Abstract:
    We describe the first case of histoplasmosis due to infection with Histoplasma capsulatum var. capsulatum in a wild badger (Meles meles) in Austria. Diagnosis was established by histopathological and immunohistochemical characterization of yeast forms in skin lesions and lymph nodes. Although Austria has yet to be regarded as an endemic region for H. capsulatum, infections of animals and humans exposed to contaminated soil cannot be excluded.
