A case of Hodgkin's disease who developed Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) is described. The diagnosis of P. carinii was confirmed on post-mortem lung biopsy. The rarity of its occurrence in our country is emphasised as is the need for high degree of suspicion and early institution of treatment.
Two unusual cases of aspergillus valvular endocarditis without any history of cardiovascular surgery found at autopsy are reported. As there is a chance of dissemination, early diagnosis is important. Clinical awareness can lead to early recognition and effective treatment of this potentially lethal condition.
