Reactivation of coccidioidomycosis in a fit American visitor.

F M Williams1, V Markides, J Edgeworth, A J Williams.   

Abstract

The case history is presented of an American visitor, known to have had primary coccidioidomycosis previously, who became very unwell during a visit to the UK. Despite consideration of reactivation of coccidioidomycosis from the outset, other pathogens were identified while Coccidioides immitis was not initially, leading to a delay in treatment.
