title: [Paecilomycosis].
abstract: Among patients of an allergological center there appeared cases of respiratory and cutaneous allergy provoked by fungal infection Paecilomyces varioti Bainier. In the soil the fungi occurred in the mycelial form while in humans and animals the infection manifested in a parasitic hemotropic-tissue form. Pathogenesis of the disease is related to chronic sepsis-like state produced by the persistence of parasitizing hemotropic-tissue Chlamydiaceae-like fungi in blood and tissue cells, sensitization to them, impairments of small and medium size vessels by immunocomplex type, and delayed hypersensitivity in tissues.
