Radiological manifestations of small intestinal South American Blastomycosis.
Three cases of South American blastomycosis are described with involvement of the small intestine and/or ileocecal region. The radiologic findings are nonspecific, e.g., fixed narrowing and mucosal irregularities. Differential diagnostic possibilities include regional enteritis, tuberculosis and lymphoma. With increasing travel in endemic areas, recognition of tropical diseases becomes more important.
