Abstract
Histoplasma is a common dimorphic fungus in the environment. Infection by this fungus in an immunocompetent host might present with flu-like symptoms or might be innocuous. However, in immunocompromised host, it can cause any of the clinical subtypes: pulmonary, disseminated, or systemic disease.[1] Here we present a case of a patient of multiple myeloma who developed disseminated histoplasmosis post allogenic bone marrow transplant.
