摘要：
International travel, changing immigration patterns, and political upheavals have transformed the epidemiological picture of many tropical granulomatous disorders. These diseases are seen with an increasing frequency in the United States, Europe, and other developed countries. Physicians must now become familiar with illnesses that were previously regarded as being "exotic" because of this increasing prevalence. Accurate diagnosis is important because therapy is significantly different for infectious granulomatous disorders than for noninfectious diseases.
