摘要：
This case report presents a 46-year old man with a failed liver transplant who presented with malaise and dyspnea. Imaging studies revealed diffuse reticulonodular infiltrates and innumerable miliary nodules and a left upper lobe consolidative mass. Examination of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid demonstrated yeast cells with broad-based budding. He was diagnosed with pulmonary blastomycosis and started therapy with liposomal amphotericin. In spite of therapy, he clinically worsened, developing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and eventually expired.
