Histoplasmosis is an expected endemic mycosis in solid organ transplant recipients and occurs as a primary infection, reactivation, or, rarely, acquired from an infected allograft.

We present the case of a 66-year-old woman with isolated tenosynovitis due to Histoplasma capsulatum 25 years after a kidney transplant.
