Recurrent histoplasmosis of the wrist: a case report

S B Care et al. J Hand Surg Am. 1998 Nov.

Abstract

Histoplasmosis of the extremities is rare. A case of recurrent histoplasmosis with a 10-year latency between initial presentation and clinical recurrence is reported. Prolonged antibiotic treatment and debridement of bony involvement led to clinical resolution of this fungal infection after a follow-up period of 20 months.
