Pneumocystis Pneumonia

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2008
Pneumocystis pneumonia (PcP) in humans is caused by Pneumocystis jirovecii, which has recently been reclassified as a fungus because its cell wall composition and nucleotide sequences are more similar to those of fungi. PcP occurs only in immunocompromised individuals such as those with AIDS. Despite the use of highly active antiretroviral therapy, PcP
