title: [Nocardiosis in HIV patients].
abstract: Two cases of nocardiosis, an uncommon disease in HIV patients, are presented. Considerations concerning diagnosis, clinical pictures, treatment and prophylaxis are discussed. Because of profound morbidity and mortality, the possibility of Nocardia infection should be suspected in cases of pulmonary infection where more common pathogens cannot be found.
