  • Title: Histoplasma capsulatum tenosynovitis: An unusual presentation in a kidney transplant recipient.
    Author: Alza-Arcila J, Ramírez-Sánchez IC, Diaz-Sanabria RA.
    Journal: Transpl Infect Dis; 2024 Jun; 26(3):e14269. PubMed ID: 38501790.
    Abstract:
    Histoplasmosis is an expected endemic mycosis in solid organ transplant recipients and occurs as a primary infection, reactivation, or, rarely, acquired from an infected allograft. Reactivation is favored by maintenance immunosuppression or anti-rejection therapy, which facilitates the appearance of disseminated forms as well as unusual presentations. We present the case of a 66-year-old woman with isolated tenosynovitis due to Histoplasma capsulatum 25 years after a kidney transplant.
