OBJECTIVE: To study the high-resolution computed tomographic (HRCT) findings in patients with AIDS and pulmonary paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study included 5 consecutive patients (4 men and 1 woman, with ages ranging between 35 and 57 years; mean, 48 years) with diagnosis of AIDS and pulmonary PCM. All patients underwent HRCT, and the images were reviewed by 2 radiologists who reached decisions by consensus.
RESULTS: The predominant HRCT findings in the present series were large nodules (80%), cavited air-space consolidations (80%), ground-glass attenuation (80%), and cicatricial emphysema in the bases (80%). These lesions predominated bilaterally in the middle regions (80%) of the lungs.
CONCLUSIONS: The most common HRCT features in patients with AIDS and pulmonary PCM are large nodules associated with cavitated air-space consolidations and ground-glass attenuation, as well as cicatricial emphysema in the pulmonary bases. These findings are usually distributed bilaterally in the middle lung zones of the lungs.
