  • Title: Upper lobe pulmonary parenchymal calcification in a patient with AIDS and Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia receiving aerosolized pentamidine.
    Author: Srivatsa SS, Burger CD, Douglas WW.
    Journal: Chest; 1992 Jan; 101(1):266-7. PubMed ID: 1729082.
    Abstract:
    In patients with AIDS-related Pneumocystis carinii infection occurring during aerosolized pentamidine prophylaxis, roentgenographic findings may be atypical. Pulmonary parenchymal calcification due to P carinii is rare. In this case, extensive upper lobe pulmonary parenchymal, splenic, and nodal calcifications occurred after two years of monthly treatments with aerosolized pentamidine.
