{Abstract}: Blastomycosis is an uncommon granulomatous disease caused by infection with thermally dimorphic fungi of the genus Blastomyces. Although pulmonary infections from Blastomyces dermatitidis are uncommon, it is important to understand the geographical distribution, presentation, diagnosis, and management of treating this condition. We report a case of fulminant blastomycosis after high inoculum inhalation, with involvement of the prostate on presentation, which progressed to acute respiratory distress syndrome.
