Abstract

Coccidioides species (Coccidioides immitis and Coccidioides posadasii) are dimorphic fungi endemic to the Southwestern United States. Initial infection ranges from asymptomatic to mild upper respiratory tract symptoms and may disseminate to other organs including the genitourinary tract. Genitourinary complaints may be the initial presenting signs and symptoms among a minority of patients. We report a case of genitourinary coccidioidomycosis and discussion of genitourinary disease with coccidioidomycosis.

摘要

球孢子菌属（粗球孢子菌和波萨达斯球孢子菌）是美国西南部特有的双相真菌。初始感染范围从无症状到轻度上呼吸道症状，并且可能播散至包括泌尿生殖道在内的其他器官。泌尿生殖道症状可能是少数患者最初出现的体征和症状。我们报告一例泌尿生殖道球孢子菌病病例，并对泌尿生殖道球孢子菌病进行讨论。
