Abstract
Exposure to the fungal pathogen Coccidioides immitis in normal hosts causes primarily self-limited pulmonary disease. We report a case of an immunocompetent patient who developed a Coccidioides-associated iliopsoas abscess with rare intra-abdominal dissemination at least one decade after primary exposure in an area endemic for this fungus.Entities:
