    Abstract:
    Pulmonary infections are the most important life-threatening complications in HIV disease. Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia being most frequent often presents with atypical radiologic features. Infections by mycobacteria and pyogenic bacteria are of growing importance. Due to the nonspecific clinical and radiological presentation and the numerous coinfections an appropriate workup with emphasis on bronchioalveolar lavage and blood cultures is essential.
