Abstract
During the period from January/85 to July/96, 102 cases of paracoccidioidomycosis were observed in a hospital in Belém, PA. Thirteen of these cases were children between 3 and 13 years of age, with a predominance of females (8:5). All patients presented the disseminated subacute form of the mycosis. The high prevalence of the mycosis in children in endemic areas of the Amazon region is discussed.Entities:
