Management and outcomes of histoplasmosis in youth with inflammatory bowel disease in an endemic area
Severe histoplasmosis infection in youth with IBD was rare. IBD treatment was modified by reducing immunosuppression. Histoplasmosis outcomes were favorable, but multiple patients required hospitalization or ED visits for IBD symptoms. The optimal approach to managing IBD during histoplasmosis treatment is challenging and requires further study.
