The findings in a patient with paracoccidiodomycosis (South American blastomycosis) diagnosed by open-lung biopsy and treated successfully with a combination of trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole are reported, and the clinical spectrum of the disease is reviewed. Although paracoccidioidomycosis is rarely encountered in the United States and is clinicially similar to other deep mycoses, it should be considered in patients who are suspected of having a fungal infection and have had previous exposure in an area endemic for paracoccidiodomycosis.
报告了一名通过开胸肺活检诊断为副球孢子菌病（南美芽生菌病）并经甲氧苄啶和磺胺甲恶唑联合治疗成功的患者的病例，同时对该病的临床谱进行了综述。尽管副球孢子菌病在美国很少见，且在临床上与其他深部真菌病相似，但对于怀疑有真菌感染且既往曾在副球孢子菌病流行地区暴露过的患者，应考虑该病。
