抄録

A 34-year-old Thai male was referred to our hospital for the treatment of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia associated with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Dyspnea and hypoxia were severe on admission, so combined therapy of prednisolone and sulfamethoxazone-trimethoprim was chosen for carinii pneumonia. Although anti-retrovirus therapy was not performed because the patient refused, anti-carinii pneumonia treatment was effective. Opportunistic infection in patients with AIDS has markedly declined in the past 2 years, but examination of infectious disease is needed in clinical fields of human immunodeficiency virus infection.
