Description:
This is a slant culture growing the fungus
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis
during its yeast phase.
Inhalation of
P. brasiliensis
conidia is presumably the route of acquisition. The primary infection is asymptomatic in most cases, and can remain dormant for years within lymph nodes, reappearing later usually due to some type of immunodeficiency.
