Abstract
Infections with fungi like Histoplasma are rarely seen in immunocompromized patients. We report the case of a renal transplant recipient who presented with fever and was diagnosed to have disseminated histoplasmosis 19 years after transplant. The pitfalls in making a diagnosis in non-endemic areas are discussed. The literature on renal transplantation recipients with histoplasmosis has been reviewed.Entities:
