American Review of Respiratory Disease, 1982•atsjournals.orgThe adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) developed in 2 patients with blastomycosis.
In one, ARDS apparently followed the rupture of an infected subcarinal lymph node into a
bronchus. Extensive involvement of alveoli with Blastomyces dermatitidis was noted at
autopsy in both patients. Four additional cases of blastomycosis with definite or presumed
ARDS are reviewed. The clinical course of these 6 patients was characterized by a
prolonged prodrome (median, 36 days), consistent with pulmonary blastomycosis, and a …
