title: Primary cutaneous histoplasmosis: a new presentation.
abstract: A fifty-one year old man on chronic steroid therapy presented with a cellulitis-erysipelas-like eruption which proved to be histoplasmosis without demonstrable systemic involvement. This presentation deviates from the five previously reported cases, two nodular and three noduloulcerative, all of which presented as a self-limited, minimally tender lesion.
