The authors describe three cases of Histoplasma capsulatum histoplasmosis that occurred in black AIDS patients living in France but originally from Guinea and Ivory Coast. In all three cases histoplasmosis was disseminated with fever. In two cases there were cutaneous manifestations. One patient had renal insufficiency and nephrotic syndrome and another presented ulcerative colitis with histoplasma in the chorion. The outcome was favorable in two patients. These three cases are in addition to the five previously reported cases in african AIDS patients. These cases stress the need for awareness of this opportunistic infection as a complication of AIDS in patients from Black Africa.
