• This report describes clinical manifestations of histoplasmosis in 6-month-old dizygotic twins, one of whom developed disseminated histoplasmosis of infancy while his sibling remained well, but developed serologic evidence of histoplasmosis. The report also documents histoplasma antigen concentrations in serum and urine before, during and after completing antifungal therapy.
