In rare cases blastomycosis may be transmitted by extrapulmonary manifestations, the skin, which may have lesions that can be contagious (2). Other organs may be affected but skin is the most common besides the lungs. Some animals are susceptible to acquiring Blastomycosis also, especially dogs. General Characteristics Blastomycosis is also known by several names: Chicago Disease, Gilchrist's disease, North American Blastomycosis.[1][4][12] Blastomycosis is believed to be found in the midwestern, southeastern, and south central states of the United States, especially concentrated along the Mississippi and Ohio rivers. Itraconazole is the treatment of choice for most blastomycosis cases due to In the last year, there were 2 confirmed fatal human cases of blastomycosis on edge, of the 13 cases there has been only one case report describing blastomycosis from southern India from the state of Tamil Nadu [6]. However, the diagnosis was based on inadequate documentation and is thus ques-tionable. In the present case, the patient had a history of travel to a known endemic area of blastomycosis in the USA. Love interrupted: Rare disease threatens dogs Jane Heinks' beloved hunting dog, Tandy, died of blastomycosis, a rare and sometimes fatal fungal disease that infects about 60 dogs yearly in Abstract. Background: Blastomycosis is a potentially fatal infection caused by the fungus Blastomyces dermatitidis.During January 1 through March 5, 2006, twenty-one laboratory confirmed cases of blastomycosis were reported among residents of an endemic area in north-central Wisconsin; a striking increase compared with previous years. BLASTOMYCOSIS What are the signs and symptoms? Fever or chills ough Shortness of breath P-42030 (07/2018) Wisconsin Department of Health Services | Division of Public Health lastomycosis is a fungal infection caused by Blastomyces. About half of people infected will not have any symptoms. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is associated with a state of immunosuppression characterized by hypogammaglobulinemia as well as B and T lymphocyte dysfunction. Though opportunistic infections are common in CLL patients, particularly after treatment, reports of infections by endemic dimorphic fungi are very few. Here we report a case of pulmonary blastomycosis in a CLL patient who There are few reports of pulmonary blastomycosis infection progressing to adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). In the literature, including this case, there have been 29 cases of blastomycosis with known or suspected ARDS with only 13 survivors.[6-21] Nine of the 29 patients either had no underlying disease or were thought to have been healthy, and 13 of the patients had a chronic Blastomycosis often causes no symptoms in its early stages, especially when it infects the lungs. It may begin gradually with a flu-like illness with fever,chills, weakness, headache,and dry cough. Blastomycosis cannot be transmitted between the two, but cases do bear similar symptoms, mainly fungus from turned-over soil. There is a long incubation period for the disease, 40 to 90 days or more.

Abstract In investigating six cases of blastomycosis in two school groups that had separately visited an environmental camp in northern Wisconsin Blastomycosis, sometimes referred to as "Blasto", is an elusive fungal organism that as part of its life cycle has the interesting nature to exist as a single-celled yeast organism. The organism grows in certain types of soil as a fungus (or lays dormant as a spore waiting for better conditions).
