Nocardia farcinica is a gram-positive, partially acid-fast, methenamine silver-positive aerobic actinomycete that is infrequently associated with nocardiosis. The relative frequency of Nocardia farcinica isolates in nocardiosis is unknown but thought to be under diagnosis. It is increasingly been recognized in immunocompetent patients. We report a case of disseminated Nocardia farcinica causing...
We report a case of pulmonary nocardiosis in an immunosuppressed patient having vasculitis who presented with fever, cough and chest pain. A suspicion of nocardiosis was made on auramine O staining of material procured by CT guided fine needle aspiration cytology right lung. Modified Ziehl-Neelsen staining was useful in confirming the diagnosis. The patient showed remarkable recovery after trea...
Haml, P. B. (1974). Thorax, 29, 382-386. Primary pulmonary nocardiosis: a case report. A case of fulminating pulmonary nocardiosis is reported. Diagnosis was made before death but too late for treatment to be effective. At necropsy extensive multiple pulmonary abscesses with involvement of the pleura, resulting in an empyema, were discovered. One cervical node showed a similar abscess. No brain...
We report a case of pulmonary nocardiosis in a 41-year-old asthma patient. Chest radiographs showed bilateral air space and consolidations.Acid-fast branching filaments were demonstrated in sputum, and the grown organism was identified phenotypically and confirmed using16S rDNA sequencing (accession no. KX500116). The patient received a combination of medical treatments, but developed complicat...
Idiopathic CD4 T-lymphocytopenia (ICL) is a rare immunodeficiency characterized by low CD4 T-lymphocyte count, which usually manifests with opportunistic infections. Nocardia as an opportunistic pathogen infecting patients with this condition has rarely been reported. Here, we describe the case of a 46-year-old male who presented with lung mass and respiratory and systemic symptoms and was even...
Nocardia is an uncommon Gram-positive organism. It typically appears as delicate filamentous Gram-positive branching rods. In the United States it was estimated to be approximately 500 to 1000 new cases per year. The organism causes disease in immunocompromised individuals with pulmonary infection representing the most common site of infection. Nocardia mikamii has been a recently isolated path...
Background. Nocardiosis is a rare disease that mainly affects severely immunocompromised patients. Symptoms are nonspecific and microbiological isolation is difficult, hiding the diagnosis. Treatment should be guided by species and susceptibility testing. Findings. We report a clinical case of a disseminated nocardiosis in a patient with HIV and HVB infections. Interpretation. Diagnosis should ...
