We report a case of tonsillar histoplasmosis with hematogenous dissemination in a woman receiving infliximab for Crohn's disease. She also had a history of sarcoidosis. Due to the unusual location and confounding medical history, our case provided a diagnostic dilemma. Histoplasma infection was confirmed histologically, and the patient responded well to appropriate treatment.
我们报告了一例患有扁桃体组织胞浆菌病并血行播散的病例,患者为一名因克罗恩病接受英夫利昔单抗治疗的女性。她还有结节病病史。由于病变位置不寻常且有复杂的病史,我们的病例带来了诊断难题。通过组织学检查确诊为组织胞浆菌感染,患者对适当治疗反应良好。
