Radiology, 1978
Six cases of pulmonary nocardiosis are reported. All patients were compromised hosts treated with corticosteroids and/or immunosuppressive agents. The clinical presentations ranged from malaise to respiratory failure. The radiological manifestations varied from a solitary nodule to extensive cavitary bronchopneumonia with distant dissemination.

To evaluate CT findings of pulmonary nocardiosis in immunocompromised patients. MATERIALS ALND METHODS: Five patients with bacteriologically confirmed pulmonary nocardiosis were evaluated. Four patients were receiving corticosteroids with or without other immunosuppressive drugs for lupus nephritis (two patients), idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura ...

Current Infectious Disease Reports, 2001
Pulmonary nocardiosis is an uncommon but serious infection that is increasingly found in immunosuppressed persons, especially transplant recipients and persons with AIDS. The Nocardia species are denizens of soil and decaying plants that gain entry to humans through inhalation or inoculation.

Fulminating Pulmonary Nocardiosis
Diseases of the Chest, 1964SUMMARY 1.Nocardiosis is a chronic infection of skin, lung, and brain caused in almost all cases by Nocardia asteroides. 2.A fatal case of pulmonary nocardiosis which probably developed while on antibiotic therapy is reported. 3.The mycology, pathology and clinical picture are reviewed. 4.Sulfadiazine in a dose of 4 to 6 gm.

CT Findings of Pulmonary Nocardiosis
American Journal of Roentgenology, 2011Nocardiosis is an opportunistic infection that primarily affects the lungs. Most infected patients have deficits in cell-mediated immunity such as those with AIDS, transplant recipients, and those receiving corticosteroid therapy. We review the various CT appearances of pulmonary nocardiosis and discuss the differential diagnosis.Common CT findings ...

Pulmonary Nocardiosis in Childhood
American Journal of Diseases of Children, 1967THE OCCURRENCE of Nocardia infections in childhood is rare. Since the late 19th Century when Nocard 1 first isolated the organism from cattle and Eppinger 2 described the first human case, only 16 cases in children have been documented in the world's literature.

Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis and nocardiosis
The American Journal of Medicine, 1960Abstract A case of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis complicated by suppurative pneumonia due to Nocardia brasiliensis is reported. The nocardiosis was successfully treated. The lesions due to pulmonary alveolar proteinosis have disappeared, as judged by radiographic study, during the course of two years.
