Abstract

We report a patient who presented with three months of foot pain, lytic bone lesions in the foot, and a painless ipsilateral leg skin ulcer. Bone and skin biopsies revealed organisms compatible with Blastomyces. Systemic blastomycosis is rare, especially with bone involvement in the foot.
