Pneumocystis jiroveci (P. jiroveci) pneumonia (PCP) in non-AIDS immunocompromised patients ismuch more critical than that in AIDS patients,1 Without treatment, mortality of PCP in immunocompromised patients approaches 100 percent, and there were no reports of spontaneous remissions of PCP without anti-PCP therapy.2 Here we report 2 non-AIDS immunocompromised patients in whom PCP developed and remitted without treatment.
