Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia after 40 years.

M Nouza1.   

Abstract

Forty years ago, Pneumocystis carinii was identified by Czech researchers J. Vanĕk and O. Jírovec as the causative agent of interstitial plasma cell pneumonia in infants. At present, it is the commonest pulmonary pathogen in AIDS patients. This review summarizes the experience and latest data on the etiopathogenesis, pathology, clinical presentation, diagnosis and therapy of P. carinii pneumonia.
