Abstract

Following an endobronchial examination, a young mine supervisor was treated with antibiotics for a pulmonary nontuberculous mycobacterial infection for approximately one year. However, a review of the radiological findings revealed a different possibility. Accordingly, pulmonary resection was performed, and histopathological analysis revealed numerous yeast-like fungi. Since the patient had stayed in the southwestern United States for two months in 2009, eight years previously, coccidioidomycosis was strongly suspected. The diagnosis of coccidioidomycosis was subsequently confirmed by serology and polymerase chain reaction testing of the excised specimen. Here, we report an educational case that emphasizes the importance of meticulous medical history-taking and awareness of endemic mycoses in other countries in the context of globalization.

肺球虫病并发非结核分枝杆菌性肺部疾病的文献复习。
在支气管镜检查后,一位年轻的矿长因肺部非结核分枝杆菌感染接受了大约一年的抗生素治疗。然而,对放射学发现的审查揭示了另一种可能性。因此,进行了肺切除术,组织病理学分析显示有许多酵母样真菌。由于患者于2009年在美国西南部停留了两个月,也就是八年前,人们强烈怀疑他患有球虫病。随后通过血清学和切除标本的聚合酶链式反应检测证实了球虫病的诊断。在这里,我们报道了一个教育案例,该案例强调了在全球化背景下,仔细记录病史和了解其他国家地方性真菌病的重要性。
