This report is the third of an Amiodaron polyneuropathy associated with osmiophilic lamcllated inclusion observed in electron microscopy. Considered together with similar reports in Pcrkexiline neuropathy and with chloroquine-induced neuromyopathy this would stress the importance of these new drug-induced neurolipidosis.
A case of hypertrophic pulmonary osteoarthropathy (HPOA) in a HIV-infected patient with granulomatous Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia is described. This is the third case of HPOA associated with AIDS reported in the literature. Granulomatous P. carinii pneumonia is an unusual manifestation of P. carinii infection. Surgical treatment of this condition may lead to the dramatic spread of P. carinii causing a fulminant course with fatal outcome.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
