Clinical and radiological characteristics of Mpox pneumonia in immunosuppressed HIV-infected patients: a multicenter study from China
Mpox pneumonia in HIV-infected individuals primarily affects those with advanced immunosuppression, presenting with disseminated necrotizing pulmonary nodules, multisystem involvement, and high mortality. Consistent ART markedly improves prognosis, highlighting the need for early identification of high-risk patients and integrated management-including sustained ART and targeted Mpox treatment-to reduce severe outcomes.
