Primary HIV-I infection associated with pneumonitis.
A 21 year old homosexual man presented with an acute pneumonitis during symptomatic seroconversion for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-I) infection. The symptoms resolved spontaneously without any therapeutic interventions needed. Acute pneumonitis should be added to the ever-increasing spectrum of clinical manifestations in primary HIV-I infection.
