Abstract

We report the first case of central nervous system histoplasmosis caused by Histoplasma capsulatum var. duboisii in a patient with no underlying immunodeficiency. African histoplasmosis is an underdiagnosed endemic fungal infection which should be included in the differential diagnosis of cerebral lesions in patients originating from Western and Central Africa.
