[Pulmonary infiltrates and fever in a HIV infected patient after Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia].

In HIV-infected patients, cytomegalovirus (CMV) disease diagnosis is usually difficult and disease results from reactivation of latent infection or reinfection in the context of severe immunosupression. Although the introduction of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) has resulted in a important decline of CMV disease, it has considerable morbidity and mortality rate. We present a case of a patient who presented fever, pulmonary infiltrates and abdominal pain after P.jirovecii pneumonia, with isolated of CMV (positive shell-vial) from LBA and gastric biopsy. We propose a possible diagnosis of digestive and pulmonary CMV disease and we initiated treatment for this with clinical response. It results surprising the rapid progression to SIDA of the patient and we can suggest that a co-infection HIV-CMV could be the cause for the rapid immunological damage.
