Abstract

Histoplasmosis is a rare entity in India and very few cases have been reported from eastern region of India like West Bengal and rarely cases from southern India as well. We hereby report a case of progressive disseminated histoplasmosis (PDH) from a non-endemic region of India (Eastern Utter Pradesh) and that too in an immunocompetent individual.
