2- Objectives To discribe epidemiological characteristics, symptoms and laboratory findings in AIDS patients with septicemia by P. marneffei treated at the Hospital for Tropical Diseases – (HTD) HCM city
3- Methods + Study design: Case Series Report + Study samples: HIV/AIDS patients with P. marneffei(+) blood culture. https://www.imperial.ac.uk/college.asp?P=6996
4- Results and Discussion (1) + 137 AIDS Patients admitted to HTD with diagnosis: “P. marneffei infection” (1 patient with C.neoformans (+) bood culture) + Male: 108 - Female: 29 + Age: 111 < 35 y.o and 21 ≥ 35 y.o. + On admission: 73 patients with diagnosis HIV (+) and 64 patients – don’t know about HIV status

4- Results and Discussion (3) Tab. 1: Clinical Manifestations (N=137)
4- Results and Discussion (5) Tab. 3: Blood cells (N=137)
4- Results and Discussion (6) Tab. 4: P. marneffei (+) Culture (N=137)
4- Results and Discussion (7) + Duration: 12 days (1 -53 days) + Intraconazole: 400mg/day Tab. 5: Result of Treatment (N=137)
4- Results and Discussion (8) Tab. 6: Cause of Death (N=137)
5- Conclusion + P. marneffei infection is diagnosed by the typical skin lesions and the reticuloendothelial system symptoms: hepato-splenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, anemia with the P. marneffei (+) in the skin lesions + The Mortality was 27.7 %.
