“…Disseminated coccidioidomycosis has been a recognized entity since the first documented case of coccidioidomycosis was reported in 1892; it occurs in approximately 1% of those affected with this endemic mycosis. The disease was once thought to be caused by an insect that deposited the fungus into the host through skin lesions 1 . Research has since shown that the primary lesion of coccidioidal granuloma is frequently pulmonary 2…”

Parenchymal brain involvement from disseminated coccidioidomycosis occurs rarely and there are few documented pediatric cases. We report a four-month-old male infant with a cerebellar lesion seen in the brain on computed tomography (CT). Coccidioides immitis (C. immitis) grew on bronchoscopic fluid samples and serum titers to C. immitis were 1:1024. Antifungal treatment was initiated and after 3 months, CT scans demonstrated brain mass resolution and serum titers were decreased.
