[A case of pulmonary moniliasis following the misuse of antibiotics].
Our patient is a 30 year old, married female, with one daughter. She has been coughing about 200-250 cc purulent, blood stained sputum per day for the last three years. In the microscopic examination of sputum, abundant leukocytes, a small quantity of red blood cells and epithelia were found. Elastic fibres were absent. In cultures C. albicans and beta hemolytic streptococci were isolated. Coughing, sputum, and scattered moist rales at the bases (see the chest x-rays) were found clinically. Other systems were normal. An amelioration began on the third day of mycostatin treatment. There was complete healing by the tenth day of the treatment.
