Abstract:
This report describes the case of a young black man in whom disseminated Coccidiodomycosis produced a visually striking facial skin condition. The recognition of the cutaneous signs of diseases that primarily affect the pulmonary system may assist the clinician in diagnosis. Findings on the skin are very helpful in exposing an underlying systemic condition that can be particularly life threatening, and early detection and treatment may impact the course of a patient’s life.
