Short Telomere Syndrome in a Patient With Unexplained Respiratory Failure and Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia

2026-04-06

Abstract excerpt

Short telomere syndromes (STS) are a group of inherited disorders characterized by accelerated telomere shortening, leading to impaired tissue regeneration and multisystem involvement. Although pulmonary fibrosis and bone marrow failure are well-recognized manifestations, atypical presentations can delay diagnosis. We report a case of a patient presenting with unexplained respiratory failure complicated by Pneumo...
