Abstract:
The authors present clinical, radiographic, and laboratory findings, and the results of therapy for 16 patients with pleural disease and HIV infection. The study underscores the wide variety of etiologies of pleural effusions and recommends a stepwise pragmatic approach in evaluating such patients, making no distinction between non-HIV-infected subjects.
