Abstract

Histoplasmosis, a deep-seated human mycosis, is observed in México as
the primary acute pulmonary form, as well as in a secondary chronic disseminated
disease. The primary acute pulmonary form is observed mainly as epidemic bursts,
and on this basis it has been detected at least in 10 states of the country. The
demonstration of H. capsulatum in the soils of the vecinity of Ciudad Guzmán,
Jalisco, enlarges the endemic área of this disease in the Mexican Republic
