An endemic mycosis is an infection caused by a dimorphic fungus that historically occurs regularly in a particular geographic area and occupies a particular niche in the local environment, and can infect people with healthy immune systems.[1] The fungi that cause endemic mycoses are sometimes called endemic fungi. While endemic mycoses can infect people with healthy immune systems, they are particularly dangerous for immunocompromised people.
Endemic mycoses have become increasingly common and have increasingly been detected outside their historical geographic range. Factors that may be contributing to this increase include population growth in endemic areas; increased numbers of immunocompromised people, particularly due to HIV infection; and environmental and climate change.[2]
List
- Adiaspiromycosis - Adiaspiromyces
- Blastomycosis - Blastomyces
- Chromoblastomycosis[3]
- Coccidioidomycosis - Coccidioides
- Emergomycosis (emmonsiosis) - Emergomyces
- Eumycetoma[3]
- Histoplasmosis - Histoplasma
- Lacaziosis (lobomycosis) - Lacazia[3]
- Paracoccidioidomycosis - Paracoccidioides
- Sporotrichosis - Sporothrix
- Talaromycosis (penicilliosis) - Talaromyces
Histoplasmosis, paracoccidioidomycosis, coccidioidomycosis, and blastomycosis are sometimes considered the "major" endemic mycoses, in contrast to the "minor" endemic mycoses such as talaromycosis, adiaspiromycosis, and emergomycosis.[2]
