title: Acute miliary blastomycosis in an AIDS patient.
abstract: The incidence of blastomycosis in immunocompromised patients with HIV infection is very low when compared to other mycoses. Of the 19 cases of blastomycosis described in HIV-infected patients, only four had a miliary pattern on chest x-ray. A case of acute miliary blastomycosis in an HIV infected patient from Louisville is described.
