Ventilator-dependent pulmonary nocardiosis in a patient with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Lung India : Official Organ of Indian Chest Society 2018 January

Recent reports of pulmonary nocardiosis (PN) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) as the only risk factor suggest a possible association between nocardiosis and COPD.

A high level of suspicion for PN should be maintained when encountered with COPD patients complaining of symptoms of pneumonia and excessive thirst.
