Congenital pneumonia due to Mycoplasma pneumoniae.
A case of probable vertical transmission of Mycoplasma pneumoniae is presented. The presence of M pneumoniae was demonstrated by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in the nasopharyngeal aspirate of a newborn who developed pneumonia shortly after birth. This result was confirmed by performing a second PCR, amplifying another part of the genome of M pneumoniae. It is concluded that M pneumoniae ...

متن کاملHemophagocytic Syndrome Associated with Mycoplasma pneumoniae Pneumonia
Mycoplasma pneumoniae (Mp) sometimes causes immunological complications in children. We present a rare case of hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) caused by Mp in a previously healthy 7-year-old Japanese girl. A chest radiograph obtained to evaluate the source of her fever showed infiltration in the lower right lung with mild splenomegaly. We could diagnose the patient with HPS on the basis of the he...

He had a serum creatinine kinase of 14 220 U/L, serum myoglobin of 1822 ng/mL, and serum creatinine of 195 µmol/L. His chest X-ray revealed bibasilar ...
متن کامل[Clinical score to rule out pneumonia due to Mycoplasma pneumoniae].
INTRODUCTION The gold standard for the diagnosis of pneumonia secondary to Mycoplasma pneumoniae is the serial measurement of IgM, since an isolated test for IgM has a poor sensitivity of 31.8%. A pneumonia due to Mycoplasma pneumoniae could be of clinically different origins, thus it is possible to perform a clinical score for its early diagnosis. OBJECTIVE To develop a clinical score in ord...
