[African histoplasmosis with ganglionic localisation. Apropos of 1 case in an HIV negative patient].
This study concerns one case of ganglionary African histoplasmosis observed in a pregnant woman. The diagnosis of this histoplasmosis case has been based on histological presentation. This patient has a HIV negative serologic reaction. The histoplasmosis clinical presentation is like tuberculosis, so its diagnosis is difficult. The prevalence of this pathology is unknown in our region but it is increasing since the discovery of AIDS.
