ABSTRACT
Progressive Disseminated Histoplasmosis (PDH) reported worldwide is yet a rare entity in India. Although, usually associated with an underlying immunocompromised state but few reports of this disease in non- immunocompetent individuals have been surfacing in last decade. We report PDH from Himalayan state of Uttarakhand North India in an agriculturist, non immunocompromised who responded well to treatment with no evidence of recurrence of the disease. Of late a number of cases are being reported from this region, an indication that this might be a hot spot of Histoplasma capsulatum.
