Transmission of coccidioidomycosis to a human via a cat bite.

Adriana Gaidici1, Michael A Saubolle.   

Abstract

We report an unusual case of coccidioidomycosis in the arm of a veterinary assistant without pulmonary symptoms. The patient had been bitten on the hand by a cat which was later diagnosed with disseminated disease. The patient responded to fluconazole therapy and remained asymptomatic at 2 months after cessation of therapy.
