Abstract

Blastomycosis is a disease caused by a type of dimorphic fungus called Blastomyces dermatitidis, which is the fungus in which the Central United States is an endemic area.
           These fungi multiply in nature in the form of filaments, or what is known as the filamentous form (Mold) and transform in the body from filamentous form to the yeasty form (yeast). The infection is transmitted by inhalation of conidia, or what is known as the external spores that the fungus produces, through the respiratory tract.
            Healthy people who develop spondylosis recover automatically, and the spermatozoa breakfast has symptoms that include fever, in particular, feeling weak and losing weight. Sometimes, especially in people with impaired functioning of the immune system, systemic disease can develop - affecting many body systems and organs.
           The most common symptom in these patients is pneumonia, followed by skin lesions (cauliflower or ulcerative lesions), osteomyelitis, prostatitis, or an infection of the central nervous system, some of those who breathe may have flu-like symptoms. in people with weakened immune systems, the infection can become severe, especially if it spreads from the lungs to other organs.
