Overview
Acute paracoccidioidomycosis must be differentiated from leukemia, lymphoma, toxoplasmosis and sarcoidosis.[1] Chronic paracoccidioidomycosis must be differentiated from tuberculosis, histoplasmosis and metastasis.[2]
Differentiating Paracoccidioidomycosis from other Diseases
Acute paracoccidioidomycosis form:[1]
Chronic paracoccidioidomycosis form:[1]
- Tuberculosis
- Leishmaniasis
- Histoplasmosis
- Coccidioidomycosis
- Cryptococcosis
- Actinomycosis
- Sporotrichosis
- Chromoblastomycosis
- Squamous cell carcinoma
- Metastasis
- Wegener's granulomatosis
