AB  - Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic mycosis that represents an important 
      public health problem in Latin America due to its life-threatening character. It 
      is considered occupational disease of agricultural workers. In this report, we 
      present a rare and serious case of the acute form of the disease in a 40-year-old 
      man with no history of contact with the rural environment. Diagnosis was made 
      through cervical lymph node biopsy, and treatment was performed with antifungal 
      drugs, which produced effective results. A literature review was conducted with 
      discussion of clinical, pathophysiological and therapeutic aspects of PCM.
