Pneumocystis carinii infection in patients of AIDS in India
J Assoc Physicians India.

Abstract
This is the first report of Pneumocystis carinii infection seen in patients with AIDS in India. Two of the three patients were of Indian origin while the third was an American tourist. This report indicates that the technical problem of demonstrating P carinii may be an important factor underlying the diagnosis of PCP.
