Abstract
We report on a patient with systemic blastomycosis who presented with acute epididymitis that was followed by the appearance of typical skin and pulmonary lesions. An excellent clinical response was obtained with ketoconazole, a new oral antifungal agent. Only 2 cases of systemic blastomycosis that were treated with ketoconazole have been reported and neither patient had genitourinary involvement. The diagnosis and treatment of systemic blastomycosis with genitourinary involvement, and ketoconazole as the treatment of fungal infections are discussed.
