De Novo Pneumocystis jirovecii Pneumonia as the Initial Manifestation of Short Telomere Syndrome: A Case Report

2026-04-12

Abstract excerpt

Short telomere syndromes are inherited disorders characterized by premature cellular aging, impaired tissue regeneration, and susceptibility to bone marrow failure, pulmonary fibrosis, and immune dysfunction. Although infectious complications are recognized in advanced disease, opportunistic infections as the initial clinical presentation remain uncommon. This case report describes a patient who developed de novo...
