Molecular Evidence of Nosocomial <i>Pneumocystis jirovecii</i> Transmission among 16 Patients after Kidney Transplantation

24 Jan 2008

Abstract excerpt

In recent years, clusters of Pneumocystis jirovecii (formerly Pneumocystis carinii) pneumonia (PCP) among immunocompromised individuals have been reported. Mostly, the source of infections was suspected to be within the clinical settings when transplant recipients and PCP patients shared hospital facilities. We report on a cluster of 16 renal transplant recipients positive for P. jirovecii. None of them received...
