We report on a patient infected with human immunodeficiency virus who presented with fever, a solitary pulmonary nodule, and cervical lymphadenopathy. The diagnosis of Penicillium marneffei infection was made from an excisional lymph node biopsy and a sputum culture. The microbiology, pathology, diagnosis, and treatment of the case are discussed. A high level of clinical suspicion is necessary for making an early diagnosis and improving the outcome of infection.
