Histoplasmin skin tests were conducted on a student population in Crema, Po Valley, Italy. In this geographical area two autochtonal cases of disseminated histoplasmosis occurred in HIV-negative men. In the last year we tested 776 senior high school students, mean age 18 years, 335 males and 441 females. Histopalsmin skin sensitivity was 1.23%, with a mean area of induration of 5.78 mm. All subjects but one had never been abroad. This preliminary survey confirms the possibility of autochtonal histoplasmal infection in the Po Valley, Italy.
在意大利波河河谷克雷马的学生群体中进行了组织胞浆菌素皮肤试验。在该地理区域，两例播散性组织胞浆菌病的本地病例发生在HIV阴性男性身上。去年，我们对776名高中生进行了检测，平均年龄18岁，其中男性335名，女性441名。组织胞浆菌素皮肤敏感性为1.23%，平均硬结面积为5.78毫米。除一人外，所有受试者均从未出过国。这项初步调查证实了意大利波河河谷存在本地组织胞浆菌感染的可能性。
