Abstract :

  Although the prevalence of intestinal cryptosporidiosis in Indonesian HIV and AIDS patients were high, however the prevalence of pulmonary cryptosporidiosis have not been previously reported. The objective of this study was to know the determination of the pulmonary cryptosporidiosis prevalence in HIV and AIDS patients with pulmonary symptom that was treated in Dr.Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya. The detection of Cryptosporidium in sputum samples used modified versien acid fast stain of Ziehl Neelsen technique. In  this study was found that  three (3) of the eight (8) sputum samples (37.5%) of  ≥ 55 years old and CD4 ≤ 70  HIV and AIDS patients were Cryptosporidium positive. Based on this study the HIV and AIDS patients with pulmonary symptoms should be suspect having  the possibility of pulmonary cryptosporidiosis beside suffered  tuberculosis.     Jumlah penderita penyakit cryptosporidiosis usus di penderita HIV dan AIDS di Indonesia tinggi, tetapi jumlah  penderita penyakit cryptosporidiosis paru di penderita sejenis belum pernah dilaporkan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui jumlah penderita penyakit cryptosporidiosis paru di penderita HIV dan AIDS dengan keluhan paru yang sedang rawat inap di RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya. Pemeriksaan Cryptosporidium di sampel dahak dilakukan dengan cara pengecatan tahan asam modifikasi Zeihl Neelsen. Pada penelitian ini ditemukan tiga dari delapan (8) sampel dahak (37,5%) berasal dari penderita yang berumur ≥55 th dan jumlah CD4-nya ≤ 70 menunjukkan Cryptosporidium positif. Didasari penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa penderita HIV dan AIDS dengan keluhan paru, selain dicurigai tuberkulosis harus juga diduga kemungkinan mengidap cryptosporidiosis paru.
