摘要：
We present what is believed to be the initial report of hard-palate infection caused by Blastomyces dermatitidis. The organism was cultivated from biopsy material obtained from a diabetic patient presenting with complaints of headache and malaise. Radiologic findings revealed a malignant-appearing soft-tissue mass with paranasal sinus base destruction.
