Abstract:
We report on a case with an unusual combination of pulmonary pathogens including Pneumocystis carinii, Rhodococcus equi and Toxoplasma gondii in an HIV infected patient. The multiple microbiological procedures required to ascertain the etiological diagnoses of pneumonitis in HIV-seropositive subjects are discussed.
