Opportunistic fungal infections (OFIs) are common among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) -positive patients, especially in those with delayed diagnosis and treatment. Patients with severe HIV/AIDS with clusters of differentiation 4 (CD4) counts less than 100 are significantly prone to develop multiple OFIs. In the current study, we present a case of co-infection of pulmonary aspergillosis and cryptococcal meningitis in a late-diagnosed HIV patient with a low CD4 count.
机会性真菌感染(OFIs)在人类免疫缺陷病毒(HIV)阳性患者中很常见,尤其是在那些诊断和治疗延迟的患者中。严重HIV/AIDS且分化簇4(CD4)计数低于100的患者显著易于发生多种机会性真菌感染。在本研究中,我们报告了1例CD4计数低且诊断延迟的HIV患者合并肺曲霉病和隐球菌性脑膜炎感染的病例。
