Abstract
Histoplasma capsulatum is endemic to the Ohio and Mississippi River valley regions of the United States. Infection with this fungus produces a broad range of clinical and pathologic manifestations. We report a case of laryngeal histoplasmosis, mimicking carcinoma, presenting as a manifestation of chronic disseminated histoplasmosis.
