[Disseminated Histoplasma duboisii histoplasmosis in a female inhabitant of the Ivory Coast].
The authors describe a disseminated multivisceral form of african histoplasmosis due to H. duboisii in a 45 years old black woman. Clinical examination shows characteristic lesions of skin, bones and lymph glands. Lymphography reveals lesions of deep lymph glands and laparascopy lesions of liver and spleen. First untimely stopped, treatment was started again with ketoconazole. 20 months later, the course of the disease is, as for as we can appreciate it, favourable.
