Coming soonParacoccidioidomycosis is a chronic systemic granulomatous infection caused by inhaling fungal propagules of the thermal dimorphic fungi *Paracoccidioides brasiliensis* or *Paracoccidioides lutzii*.
Endemic to parts of Latin America, it most commonly affects male rural and agricultural workers due to occupational soil exposure and the protective inhibitory effect of estrogen on fungal morphogenesis.
The disease typically presents as either an acute/subacute form in children and young adults involving the reticuloendothelial system, or more frequently as a chronic adult form marked by progressive pulmonary infiltration, ulcerated mucocutaneous lesions of the upper aerodigestive tract, lymphadenopathy, and potential adrenal gland involvement.
