  • Title: Clinicopathological features of cutaneous histoplasmosis in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients in Zimbabwe.
    Author: Gumbo T, Just-Nübling G, Robertson V, Latif AS, Borok MZ, Hohle R.
    Journal: Trans R Soc Trop Med Hyg; 2001; 95(6):635-6. PubMed ID: 11816437.
    Abstract:
    Reports of disseminated Histoplasma infection in African AIDS patients are scanty. In Zimbabwe, 12 patients presented in 1994-2000 with facial nodular/papular cutaneous lesions, which became umbilicated and finally ulcerated. Histology revealed non-granulomatous inflammation and macrophages stuffed with Histoplasma. Recognition of these clinical features may lead to more rapid diagnosis of disseminated histoplasmosis in Africa.
