Overview
Laboratory findings consistent with the diagnosis of acute PCM include anemia, hypergammaglobulinemia, eosinophilia, hypoalbuminemia, mild increase of AST and ALT and conjugated hyperbilirubinemia. [1]

- Latent paracoccidioides infection:
- Paracoccidioidin skin test: positive reaction [2]
- Acute Paracoccidioidomycosis:
- Anemia
- Hypergammaglobulinemia
- Eosinophilia
- Hypoalbuminemia
- Mild ALT, AST increase
- Conjugated hyperbilirubinemia [1]
