Disseminated blastomycosis in solid organ transplant is uncommon. The diagnosis is usually challenging due to vague clinical presentations, which could lead to a devastating outcome. We reported a unique case of disseminated blastomycosis with laryngeal involvement in a kidney transplant recipient who presented with hoarseness. The diagnosis was made by histopathology and culture of laryngeal mass.
