Previous Vaccinations: Other Medications: lamivudine; sulfamethoxazole (+) zidovudine Current Illness: Cirrhosis; human immunodeficiency virus antigen positive; hepatitis C; drug abuse Preexisting Conditions: Chronic sinusitis; hepatitis B Allergies: Diagnostic Lab Data: RR-40/min; BP-91/60 mmHg; HR-114/min; breath sounds over his right lung field were decreased; CXR-showed an infiltrate of the entire right lung; Autopsy-showed lobar pneumonia, pleural effusion, ascites, cardiomegaly with unremarkable valves, esophageal varices, splenomegaly and hepatomegaly with liver cirrhosis. Histopathology of the lungs revealed sheets of acute and chronic inflammatory cells diffusely filling the alveolar spaces, intra-alveolar edema and capillary congestion. Histopathology of the liver revealed cirrhotic micronodules surrounded by bridging bands of fibrosis with portal ductular proliferation and moderately periductual lymphocytic infiltrate. Histopathology of the spleen showed marked sinusoidal congestion with mild depletion of the white pulp. Lymph nodes showed mild follicular depletion. Isotyping confirmed S. pneumonia, strain type 3. CDC Split Type: WAES01110449
Write-up: It was reported that a 44 year old white male was vaccinated in 1995 with a dose of pneumococcal vaccine 23 polyvalent and a dose of influenza virus vaccine. At the time of vaccination, the pt''s CD4 count was 250 cells/microL (19%) and he was prescribed concomitantly zidovudine, lamivudine and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim. It was noted that over the subsequent 2 years, there was a transient increase of his CD4 count to a maximum of 370 cells/microL and then a slow decline. The pt presented in 4/97 to the ER with a 6 day history of violent shaking chills, night sweat and malaise. The pt reported shortness of breath, occasional blood-tinged sputum and pleuritic chest pain for 3 days. The pt was known to have been HIV (+) for 8 years, with risk factors including IV drug abuse. It was noted that the pt had received medical care at the infectious disease clinic at the same hospital. It was noted that at his last appointment, 3 months prior to his presentation to the ER, the pt had a CD4 cell count of 216 cells/microL (16%) and his viral load was 1270 copies/mL. It was reported that the pt completely recovered from a hepatitis b infection, but hat a history of chronic sinusitis and hepatitis C. The pt had never suffered from the opportunistic infections common in AIDS. It was reported that in the ER, the pt was poorly cooperative, appeared pale and coughed occasionally. He was afebrile, hypoxemic and had oliguria. Septic shock with severe bacterial pneumonia was dx''d. Ceftazidime, erythromycin, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim and IV hydration were administered. It was reported that the pt required orotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation. About 11 hours after presenting to the ER, the pt developed recurrent ventricular tachycardia and expired. It was noted that with the exception of minimal aseptic leptomeningitis, the neuropathological findings were unremarkable. There was no evidence that the pt had a concurrent influenza infection. It was reported that Streptococcus pneumoniae was cultured from various blood samples. The organism was sensitive to penicillin, chloramphenicol, vancomycin and erythromycin. It was noted that the pneumococcal vaccine 23 polyvalent included isotype 3. |
