Abstract

Pneumocystis jiroveci is the most common and serious opportunistic infection in acquired immune deficiency syndrome patients. It is detected in approximately 80% of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected individuals. In this paper, we present a case of pneumocystic jiroveci pneumonia in a 32-year-old HIV-infected patient who committed suicide. We also present histopathological findings in the lung and aim to draw attention to suicidal tendency in HIV-infected individuals

Özet

Pneumocystis jiroveci edinsel bağışıklık yetmezliği sendromunda en sık rastlanan ve ciddi bir opportunistik enfeksiyondur. İnsan bağışıklık yetmezlik virüsü (HIV) enfeksiyonu saptanan olgularda %80'e varan oranlarda gelişebilmektedir. Bu olgu intihar eden 32 yaşında HIV pozitif bir hastada gelişmiş Pneumocystis jiroveci pnömonisi olgusudur. Olgu, akciğerlerde saptanan histopatolojik bulguların sunulması yanında HIV pozitif hastaların intihar eğilimi göstermelerine dikkat çekmek amacıyla sunulmuştur.
