Histoplasmosis diagnosis using a polymerase chain reaction method. Application on human samples in French Guiana, South America.

Diagnostic microbiology and infectious disease - 1 Aug 2007

Maubon Danièle, Simon Stéphane, Aznar Christine

Abstract excerpt

Untreated histoplasmosis is life threatening, especially in immunosuppressed patients. In French Guiana, South America, it is one of the most common opportunistic infections in AIDS patients. Twenty-one cases of disseminated histoplasmosis were diagnosed in 2004 in the mycology laboratory of Cayenne hospital. Culture samples for histoplasmosis diagnosis is simple, sensitive, and specific, but it is a lengthy...
