Background: HIV-infected patients (HIP) who ignore their HIV status or those without viral suppression, may develop Pneumocystis jirovecci pneumonia (PJP) and require admission to an intensive care unit (ICU), with a mortality rate of ICU HIV patients with PJP can still be up to 60%. Our aims are to describe clinical characteristics of patients with proven Aids-related PJP and determine factors related with mortality.
