Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia: effect of corticosteroid treatment on radiographic appearance in a patient with AIDS

SA Groskin, ME Stadnick and PG DuPont
Department of Radiology, State University of New York Health Science Center, Syracuse 13210.

Dramatic radiographic and clinical resolution of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia occurred in a patient with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome after corticosteroids were added to his standard antimicrobial treatment regimen. No cause other than P carinii infection could be demonstrated for the patient's pulmonary disease, and his clinical and radiographic abnormalities waxed and waned in synchrony with decreases and increases in his dose of corticosteroids.
