“…CMV pneumonia, on the other hand, is relatively rare and its diagnosis can be a challenge. One should always keep in mind the possibility of viral infections such as CMV in immunocompromised patients and workup should be tailored accordingly [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13].…”

Introduction: The novel coronavirus also called SARS-COV-2 was declared a global pandemic by the WHO in March 2020. In the Republic of Congo, the first imported case was introduced on March 14, 2020. Pointe-Noire, whose 1st case was reported on March 17, 2020, is described as the second epicenter of the disease after Brazzaville the capital. Objective: In this work, the authors described the epidemiological, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects that contributed to the management of COVID-19 patients in Pointe-Noire. Material and Method: This was a cross-sectional descriptive study. The situational analysis was based on the situation report (SITREP) n°: 434 including COVID-19 data from the department of Pointe-Noire since the declaration of the first case until June 19, 2021, a period of 15 months. The biological diagnosis was exclusively based on RT-PCR from a nasopharyngeal swab. The extraction was carried out using two processes: filter column extraction and magnetic ball extraction using different kits. Amplification was performed on five types of PCR instruments.

“…По некоторым литературным данным, наиболее частыми локализациями ЦМВ-и являются офтальмологические (ретининт, на долю которого приходится до 85% всех случаев ЦМВ-и) и желудочно-кишечные (колит и эзофагит) -до 10% [32,33] Клиническая картина криптококкоза неспецифична и складывается из менингеальных симптомов, воспалительной интоксикации и респираторных симптомов (при легочном поражении). Рентгенологическая картина криптококковой пневмонии довольно вариабельна и не имеет характерных черт: могут выявляться инфильтраты или диссеминация, возможны внутригрудная лимфаденопатия, деструкции и экссудативный плеврит, а в литературе приведены описания случаев диффузных интерстициальных изменений, имитирующих картину пневмоцистоза [41].…”

The review presents information on epidemiology, clinical, laboratory and radiological manifestations of infectious and malignant respiratory diseases in HIV-infected patients.The data on the most common infections (communityacquired pneumonia, tuberculosis, Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia) and malignant diseases (Kaposhi’s sarcoma, lymphomas) as well as less frequent diseases (CMV-infection, MAC-infection, fungal pneumonias) are presented.The article contains facts about the incidence of pulmonary diseases according to the severity of HIV-associated immunodeficiency. This review also presents current information on the diagnostic criteria, treatment regimens and secondary prophylaxis for HIV-associated respiratory infections and malignancies. The specialties of ART initiation in definite cases of opportunistic infections and ART assignment during the diagnostic period are highlighted.The growing number of HIV-infected patients and the wide spectrum of possible pulmonary diseases argue the need for optimal clinical approach to HIV-infected patients with respiratory lesions for various physicians (general practitioners, pulmonologists and phthisiatricians).
