• W2310636702 abstract "We report Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) diagnosed by bronchoalveolar lavage cytology and transbronchial lung biopsy in three out of five human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) positive adult patients presenting with interstitial pneumonitis. One of these patients was serologically positive for HIV at the time of presentation and the remaining two patients were detected to be HIV positive on follow up after the diagnosis had been established. All the three patients were treated with co-trimoxazole. One patient recovered and was discharged; another patient improved with treatment but died after jugular vein cannulation and the third patient succumbed to cryptosporidial diarrhoea. The remaining two patients with non-specific interstitial pneumonitis treated with prednisolone and bronchodilators were recovered and were discharged from the hospital.In developing countries, the proportion of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) cases, compared to other opportunistic infections associated with AIDS, is low partly because of underdiagnosis. PCP cases are reported that were diagnosed by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cytology and transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) in 3 out of 5 HIV-positive adult patients presenting with interstitial pneumonitis at the Department of Chest Medicine, KEM Hospital, Bombay. One of these patients was serologically positive for HIV at the time of presentation and the remaining 2 patients were detected to be HIV-positive on follow-up after the diagnosis had been established. All patients had elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate. CD4+ lymphocyte analysis was done in 1 patient and revealed 360 CD4+ cells/cu. mm. BAL cytology using Giemsa stained smears confirmed the presence of cysts diagnostic of Pneumocystis carinii. TBLBs of the 3 patients who revealed P. carinii in their BAL fluid also evinced foamy intra-alveolar eosinophilic exudates, and the GMS stain showed the presence of ovoid or cup-shaped structures consistent with P. carinii within these exudates. Biopsies from the 2 PCP-negative, HIV-positive patients showed evidence of interstitial pneumonitis. All 3 patients were treated with cotrimoxazole (20 mg/kg body weight). Only 1 patient recovered and was discharged; another patient improved with treatment and was started on cefotaxime (50 mg/kg body weight) and amikacin (15 mg/kg body weight), but died after jugular vein cannulation. The third patient developed cryptosporidial diarrhea and died. The remaining 2 PCP-negative patients with nonspecific interstitial pneumonitis treated with prednisolone and bronchodilators recovered and were discharged from the hospital. BAL cytology and TBLB were useful tools in detecting PCP, one of the few treatable AIDS-related infections." @default.
