Rev Inst Med Trop Sao Paulo. 2024 Mar 18;66:e15. doi: 10.1590/S1678-9946202466015. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTFour cases of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) with calcified cerebral toxoplasmosis associated with perilesional edema causing a single episode of neurological manifestations have recently been reported. Here, we describe the first detailed description of perilesional edema associated with calcified cerebral toxoplasmosis causing three episodes of neurological manifestations in a PLWHA, including seizures in two of them. These recurrences occurred over approximately a decade. Throughout this period, the patient s...

COVID-19 in hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients during three years of the pandemic: a multicenter study in Brazil
Rev Inst Med Trop Sao Paulo. 2024 Mar 18;66:e17. doi: 10.1590/S1678-9946202466017. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTHematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients are at -increased risk for severe COVID-19. The aim of this study was to evaluate the burden of COVID-19 in a cohort of HSCT recipients. This retrospective study evaluated a cohort of adult hospitalized HSCT recipients diagnosed with COVID-19 in two large hospitals in São Paulo, Brazil post-HSCT, from January 2020 to June 2022. The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Of 49 cases, 63.2% were male with a median age of 47 years. Allogeneic-HSCT (51.2%) and autol...

Myelotoxicity and kidney dysfunction related to the use of trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole for the treatment of Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia: a case report of severe adverse events with a common drug
We present the case of a male patient with hypertension and a recent diagnosis of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, undergoing rituximab treatment for two months. He was admitted to the intensive care unit due to dyspnea, tachypnea, and pleuritic pain, requiring mechanical ventilation. Chest computed tomography showed bilateral and multilobed ground-glass opacities, compromising more than 80% of the lung parenchyma. Pulmonary tuberculosis and COVID-19 were ruled out. An angiotomography and Doppler ultrasound revealed an extensive pulmonary thrombus and deep venous thrombosis. Empiric treatment with TMP-SMX for PCP was initiated, but w...
