摘要
Coccidioidomycosis is an infection caused by dimorphic fungi of the genus Coccidioides, soil-dwelling fungi endemic in semiarid to and life zones in the southwestern United States, northern Mexico, and scattered areas of Latin America. This article discusses populations at particular risk, diagnosis, clinical presentation, outcomes, and treatment of this potentially horrific disease.
