[Opportunistic infections: What's new?]
Deutsche Medizinische Wochenschrift 2018 December
Guidelines from 3 clinical societies and peer-reviewed publications have been reviewed for recent changes in the management of opportunistic infections. Trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazol administered intravenously is an option to treat cerebral toxoplasmosis if oral therapy is not feasible. CD4 T cell cut-off for starting prophylaxis with trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole is now 200/µl. For prophylaxis and treatment of Pneumocystis pneumonia trimethoprim and sulfamethoxazole still are recommended. Liposomal amphotericin B + fluconazole is a new treatment option for cryptococcosis. Addition of steroids can be considered in the treatment of tuberculosis to avoid immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome. A new syndrome associated with HHV8 has been described: Kaposi Sarcoma Inflammatory Cytokine Syndrome (KICS). Localization and dissemination of herpes zoster have to be considered for treatment determination.
