Background:This review article summarizes and updates the knowledge on paracoccidioidomycosis. P lutzii and the cryptic species of P. brasiliensis and their geographical distribution in Latin America, explaining the difficulties observed in the serological diagnosis.Objectives:Emphasis has been placed on some genetic factors as predisposing condition for paracoccidioidomycosis. Veterinary aspects were focused, showing the wide distribution of infection among animals. The cell-mediated immunity was better characterized, incorporating the recent findings.Methods:Serological methods for diagnosis were also compared for their parameters of accuracy, including the analysis of relapse.Results:Clinical forms have been better classified in order to include the pictures less frequently observesiod.Conclusion:Itraconazole and the trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole combination was compared regarding efficacy, effectiveness and safety, demonstrating that azole should be the first choice in the treatment of paracoccidioidomycosis.

Paradoxical reactions have never been described in patients with paracoccidioidomycosis or other deep endemic mycoses out of the context of human immunodeficiency virus infection. We describe 2 patients with an acute form of paracoccidioidomycosis who presented with a worsening of their clinical manifestations while on appropriate antifungal treatment. These manifestations were severe and required adjunct corticosteroid therapy.

Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), initially reported in 1908 in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, by Adolpho Lutz, is primarily a systemic and neglected tropical mycosis that may affect individuals with certain risk factors around Latin America, especially Brazil. Paracoccidioides brasiliensis sensu stricto , a classical thermodimorphic fungus associated with PCM, was long considered to represent a monotypic taxon. However, advances in molecular taxonomy revealed several cryptic species, including Paracoccidioides americana , P. restrepiensis , P. venezuelensis , and P. lutzii , that show a preference for skin and mucous membranes, lymph nodes, and respiratory organs but can also affect many other organs.
