Pneumocystis carinii is a common opportunistic pathogen in patients infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia is common, while extrapulmonary infections with Pneumocystis carinii have been reported sparingly. The clinical features are frequently nonspecific. The detection of Pneumocystis carinii in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) has not been reported thus far. In this report, an unusual case of Pneumocystis carinii meningoradiculitis in an HIV-infected patient who had previously received primary prophylaxis with trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole is presented.
卡氏肺孢子菌是人类免疫缺陷病毒（HIV）感染患者常见的机会性病原体。卡氏肺孢子菌肺炎很常见，而卡氏肺孢子菌肺外感染的报道较少。其临床特征通常不具有特异性。迄今为止，尚未见脑脊液（CSF）中检测到卡氏肺孢子菌的报道。在本报告中，呈现了1例曾接受过甲氧苄啶-磺胺甲恶唑初级预防的HIV感染患者发生卡氏肺孢子菌脑脊神经根炎的罕见病例。
