摘要
军团菌是引起散发和流行性社区获得性肺炎的主要病原之一。军团菌病的临床表现不特异，目前的诊断方法都具有一定的局限性。军团菌肺炎的病死率和敏感抗生素使用的时机有关。大环内酯类和氟喹诺酮类抗生素均可用于严重感染。本文针对军团菌肺炎的危险因素、临床表现、诊断、治疗和预后方面的进展进行了阐述。
Legionella pneumophila is increasingly recognized as a cause of both sporadic and epidemic community-acquired pneumonia. Clinical manifestations of legionella disease are not specific and there are limitations in the current diagnostic methods. The mortality rate for legionella pneumonia depends on the promptness of appropriate antibiotic therapy. Macrolides and fluoroquinolones are the treatment of choice for severe disease. This article reviews the recent development of the epidemiology, clinical manifestations, diagnostic methods, treatment and prognosis of legionella pneumonia.
