Abstract

In France, American pulmonary histoplasmosis is an imported deep mycosis, caused by inhalation of Histoplasma capsulatum. Clinical and radiological features of this exotic disease are multiple, simulating tuberculosis or cancer. We report two cases of American histoplasmosis with pseudo-tumoral form, in immunocompetent subjects working in Venezuela, with a multinodular pulmonary presentation.
