Abstract: BACKGROUND: Aspergillosis is an uncommon yet serious opportunistic infection in patients with AIDS. It has been extensively reported in HIV-infected adult patients. To our knowledge there are no studies that describe the epidemiology, clinical manifestations and outcome of aspergillosis in a large HIV-infected pediatr ...

Abstract: Pulmonary aspergillosis has recently been described as an emerging infection in patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), but the pathological changes have not been well documented. In this autopsy study, 17 cases of AIDS-related pulmonary aspergillosis were identified from the files of two institution ...

Abstract: Invasive aspergillosis is one of the most threatening infections in immunocompromised patients of risk. The classical standard therapy of deep-seated mycoses--amphotericin B as monotherapy or in combination with 5-fluorocytosine--shows a response rate in aspergillosis of 55-60%. The new triazole compound itraconazole ...

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Invasive aspergillosis is an infrequent clinicopathological entity which is difficult to diagnose (since it requires tissue samples, normally of the lung where the pathogenic effect of the fungi may be seen) and thus an important number of cases are not found until necropsy. In patients with human immunode ...
