Blastomyces dermatitidis is a dimorphic fungus that can cause granulomatous lesions. Typically, children present with respiratory symptoms. Central nervous system involvement is unusual, and almost always associated with involvement of other organs. This case report, to our knowledge, is the first published case of an adolescent male presenting with panhypopituitarism secondary to a blastomycosis infection.
