 AB    We present the case of a patient with AIDS who developed abscessified
       pneumonia by Rhodococcus equi. We publish this case given the rare
       frequency of presentation of this opportunistic infection in this type
       of patient and given its good clinical evolution, on the contrary of
       other cases described so far in the literature. The good evolution of
       the patient may be due to an early diagnosis, less than one month, and
       the combined medical therapy with rifampicine and tetracyclines.
