Abstract: | ![]() Clinical differences in histoplasmosis between North America and Brazil prompted investigation of experimental infection with representative strains. Mortality was higher with Latin American strains, and lung pathology showed large necrotizing granuloma with prominent neutrophilic infiltration. Chronic disease was unique to the North American strain. |
