摘要

Pulmonary histoplasmosis is a rare disease in France, where all cases are imported. Diagnosis is difficult in nonendemic areas, often based on travel history and observation of epidemic in a group. We report three cases of pulmonary histoplasmosis that occurred in a group of 12 French cavers traveling to Cuba.
