Detection of Pulmonary Toxoplasma gondii Causing Atypical Pneumonia in an Immunosuppressed Patient through Metagenomic Sequencing

2025-06-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Pulmonary toxoplasmosis is a rare but critical opportunistic infection in immunosuppressed individuals, often presenting as atypical pneumonia. Conventional diagnostic methods, including serology and cultures, may yield false negatives, complicating timely diagnosis and treatment. <h4>Methods:</h4> A bronchoalveolar lavage sample was obtained from a 48-year-old immunosuppressed patient hospit...
