  • Title: Apical Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia in AIDS patients not receiving inhaled pentamidine prophylaxis.
    Author: Shin MS, Veal CF, Jessup JG, Ho KJ.
    Journal: Chest; 1991 Nov; 100(5):1462-4. PubMed ID: 1935316.
    Abstract:
    Isolated apical Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia might develop in AIDS patients receiving aerosolized pentamidine prophylaxis. Demonstrated here are two cases of apical P carinii pneumonia occurring in patients not receiving inhaled pentamidine prophylaxis. Such isolated apical localization of P carinii should be differentiated from tuberculosis and fungal infection.
