A 67-yr-old Indonesian patient with disseminated histoplasmosis is described. He had general malaise and fever for 6 months; an oral ulcer, bilateral adrenal gland enlargement and partial adrenal insufficiency were found. An adrenal aspirate contained Histoplasma capsulatum. The literature on adrenal involvement in disseminated histoplasmosis is reviewed and it is concluded that bilateral enlargement, demonstrated by sonography or computed tomography, in a patient with general malaise is an important clue to the diagnosis.
