Abstract/Notes Blastomycosis is a thermal dimorphic fungus endemic to the Ohio and Mississippi River valleys, and the Great lakes regions. Once inhaled a patient may present with a wide variety of clinical and radiographic manifestations, simulating other fungal, bacterial and neoplastic diseases and often leading to misdiagnosis. We describe a case of North American blastomycosis in a 42-year-old female living in southern Ontario. This case shows how the sporadic nature of this disease can lead to delayed diagnosis. This paper discusses the organism involved, epidemiology, etiology, clinical and radiographic presentations, diagnostic methods, treatment and prognosis.This abstract is reproduced with the permission of the publisher.
