Identification of Legionella feeleii Cellulitis

To the Editor: In general, reports of extrapulmonary Legionella spp. infections are scarce. For example, L. micdadei infection was found with the following manifestations: a mass on the left side of the neck and low-grade fever in a healthy 9-year-old girl (1); multiple liver and lung abscesses in a 7-year-old girl with acute lymphoblas-tic leukemia who had undergone allo-geneic cord blood tran...

Second serogroup of Legionella feeleii strains isolated from humans.

Three strains of Legionella feeleii from patients with pneumonia (425-MI-H, 691-WI-H, and 693-WI-H) and one environmental strain (713-MI-E) received at the Centers for Disease Control for reference diagnostic testing were compared with the type strain WO-44C-C3 (ATCC 35072) by DNA hybridization, chemical analysis of cellular fatty acids and ubiquinones, biochemical tests, and serological charac...

Legionella jordanis lower respiratory tract infection: case report and review.

Legionella jordanis was first described in 1982 after isolation from environmental sources and is otherwise a very rare human pathogen. Here, we report the recovery of L. jordanis from a bronchoalveolar lavage specimen from a patient who presented with an indolent lower respiratory tract infection associated with constitutional symptoms. This case is the first culture-positive case of infection...

Comparative analysis of Legionella pneumophila and Legionella micdadei virulence traits.

While the majority of Legionnaire's disease has been attributed to Legionella pneumophila, Legionella micdadei can cause a similar infection in immunocompromised people. Consistent with its epidemiological profile, the growth of L. micdadei in cultured macrophages is less robust than that of L. pneumophila. To identify those features of the Legionella spp. which are correlated to efficient grow...

Enzymatic activities of Legionella pneumophila and Legionella-like organisms.

The API ZYM system was used to investigate enzymatic activities of Legionella pneumophila and other Legionella-like organisms. Leucine aminopeptidase, alkaline and acid phosphatase, butyrate and caprylate esterase, and phosphoamidase activities were consistently detected in all strains tested. No evidence of myristate lipase, trypsin, chymotrypsin, or glycosidase activity was found.
