    Author: Chen F, Sethi G, Goldin R, Wright AR, Lacey CJ.
    Journal: Thorax; 2004 Nov; 59(11):997-9. PubMed ID: 15516479.
    Abstract:
    This report of concurrent granulomatous Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (GPCP) and Mycobacterium xenopi pneumonia (MXIP) in a patient with advanced HIV disease 3-5 weeks after commencing antiretroviral therapy (ART) fits the syndrome of HIV immune reconstitution/restoration disease (IRD). It may also be a unique window into the immunology of granulomatous inflammation.
