Abstract
We have in California a peculiar form of oidiomycosis of which, so far, no cases have been described in people who had not been in our state, except the very first case of this form of infection which was observed by Wernicke1in Buenos Ayres and later more accurately described by Posadas. The first case in California was reported by Dr. E. Rixford2of San Francisco to the San Francisco Medico-Chirurgical Society, March 4, 1894. Another similar case under the care of Drs. Thorne3and Robinson was seen by him4the same year. Later Dr. Rixford,5in conjunction with Dr. Gilchrist of the Johns Hopkins Hospital Medical School, gave a more complete description of these two cases and of the parasite. This description established fully the morphology of the parasite in the tissues and the nature of the lesions which it produces. At that time,This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
