The purpose of this report is to describe the first Cameroonian case of disseminated histoplasmosis due to Histoplasma capsulatum capsulatum in association with HIV infection. The patient was a 34-year-old HIV1 infected woman. Diagnosis of histoplamosis was made in post-mortem. The similarity of the clinical symptoms with disseminated tuberculosis makes diagnosis of mycosis difficult. Active and effective care of histoplasmosis is urgently necessary for the HIV infected persons.
