Case Summary: Frank Russo — Shortness of Breath
Frank Russo is a 39-year-old male who presents with a chief complaint of progressive
shortness of breath that has worsened over several weeks. The case is challenging as it
requires the clinician to look beyond the immediate respiratory symptoms to identify
the underlying immunocompromised state that predisposed him to an opportunistic
infection.
