Extractions: Blastomycosis is a systemic fungal infection caused by the dimorphic pathogen Blastomyces dermatitidis B. dermatitidis grows as a mold in moist soil or vegetation that, under certain conditions, releases spores that can be inhaled by nearby animals or people. Once they enter the lungs, the spores transform into large thick walled broad-based budding yeast that multiply within the lung and other tissues of the infected animal. Thus, the dimorphic state of B. dermatitidis is defined by its growth as a mold in the environment and a yeast in tissue. If it continues to multiply in the lung, blastomycosis can cause significant pulmonary disease (pneumonia) in animals and people. The yeast also have a tendency to disseminate to other sites in the body, particularly to the skin, eyes, and joints in dogs, and sometimes to the skin in people.

Extractions: Health Information from: Disease Injury ... Prevention Blastomycosis Alternative names: North American blastomycosis; Gilchrist's disease Definition: A rare fungal infection caused by breathing in a fungus, Blastomyces dermatitidis, found in wood and soil. Causes, incidence, and risk factors: The disease occurs more often in men and is geographically limited to areas of the south-central and midwestern U.S. and Canada. Men 30 to 50 years old are affected most frequently, but no occupational link is known. Lung infection may produce no symptoms, but when the infection is widespread, skin lesions (see skin lesion of blastomycosis ) or bone lesions may appear, and the urogenital system may be affected. The incidence is 4 out of 100,000 people.

Extractions: 15 May 2000 Table of Contents Introduction Blastomycosis is a systemic fungal infection caused by the organism Blastomyces dermatitidis . It has a highly variable clinical spectrum and can cause acute pneumonia-like illness or chronic pulmonary disease; in a disseminated form it can have cutaneous manifestations, less commonly involve the genitourinary tract, bone or even the central nervous system, and in rare instances lead to death The incidence of blastomycosis has not been reliably reported because it is not nationally reportable in Canada or the United States, although it is reportable in Wisconsin . The ecological niche of blastomycosis has become better defined, but is not yet fully understood because of the great difficulty in isolating the organism from the environment. Outbreak studies have implicated the building of a hunting lodge, proximity to a construction site, raccoon hunting, exposure to a beaver lodge, and activities by riverbanks as sources of exposure . So far, favourable characteristics are thought to be warm moist soil, slightly acidic pH, animal excrement, organic debris and adjacency to waterways such as lakes or rivers

Extractions: Blastomycosis is an infection caused by inhaling microscopic particles (spores) produced by the fungus Blastomyces dermatitidis . Blastomycosis may be limited to the lungs or also involve the skin and bones. In its most severe form, the infection can spread throughout the body and involve many organ systems (systemic). Description Blastomycosis is a fungal infection caused by Blastomyces dermatitidis . Although primarily an airborne disease, farmers and gardeners may become infected from contact with spores in the soil through cuts and scrapes. The fungus that causes the disease is found in moist soil and wood in the southeastern United States, the Mississippi River valley, southern Canada, and Central America. Blastomycosis is also called Gilchrist's disease, Chicago disease, or North American blastomycosis. Another South and Central American disease, paracoccidioidomycosis, is sometimes called South American blastomycosis, but despite the similar name, this disease is substantially different from North American blastomycosis. Canine blastomycosis, a common dog disease, is caused by the same fungus that infects humans. However, people do not get this disease from their dogs except only very rarely through dog bites. Blastomycosis is a rare disease infecting only about 4 in every 100,000 people. It is at least six times more common in men than in women and tends to more often infect children and individuals in the 30-50 year old age group. People who have diabetes mellitus or who are taking drugs that suppress the immune system (immunocompromised) are more likely to develop blastomycosis. Although people with AIDS can get blastomycosis because of their weakened immune system, blastomycosis has not been one of the more common fungal infections associated with AIDS.

Human infection generally occurs by inhalation. Clinical symptoms vary widely. Some patients are asymptomatic, whereas others experience a flu-like syndrome. Occasionally chronic lung disease resembling postprimary tuberculosis is the first indication of infection. In some untreated patients fulminant pneumonia and adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) may lead to death. The chest film typically reveals homogeneous opacities simulating bacterial lobar pneumonia . Upper lobes are involved slightly more than lower lobes. Hilar or mediastinal lymphadenopathy pleural effusions and cavitation are uncommon. Another common radiographic appearance is that of a

Extractions: are with the Family Practice Residency Program at St. Vincent's Medical Center. A 37-year-old African-American Male with no significant past medical history and social history significant for smoking and intermittent incarceration was initially admitted with left lower lobe pneumonia in January 2000. The patient denied any history of IV drug abuse or other risk factors for HIV. He was treated with intravenous Ceftriaxone and Erythromycin. Blood and sputum cultures failed to grow any pathologic organisms. A skin test demonstrated anergy to tuberculosis, mumps and candida. HIV antibody test was non-reactive. The patient clinically improved and was discharged on oral Azithromycin after 5 days of intravenous therapy. He was seen 3 days later in follow up as an outpatient and since he did not fill the previous prescription, he was given 10 days worth of Clarithromycin samples.
