Abstract: | Paracoccidioidomycosis is an important Latin American endemy. The lung is the portal of entrance of the infection and the lesions are confined to this organ in, at least, 30 per cent of the progressive cases. Twelve case histories of patients with the progressive pulmonary form are presented in order to illustrate the repetitious clinical manifestations but the large variety of radiological presentations. The mycologic diagnosis is also emphasized.Pesquisador I-B do CNPqBolsista do CNPq |
