Ventilator-dependent pulmonary nocardiosis in a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Ventilator-dependent pulmonary nocardiosis in a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

Nocardiosis is a rare infectious disease entity that mostly affects the lungs, brain, or skin of immunocompromised individuals. Recent reports of pulmonary nocardiosis (PN) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as the only risk factor suggest a possible association between no...
