Abstract

Abstract"Atypical" pneumonia was described as a distinct and usually mild form of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) caused by Mycoplasmapneumoniae, Chlamydophila pneumoniae, Chlamydophila psittaci, Bordetella pertussisand Legionellaspecies. Mycoplasmapneumoniaeis detected in CAP patients most frequently amongschoolaged children from 5 to 15 years of age. Although the infection is generallymild and selflimiting may develop severe or extrapulmonary disease. Further,symptoms and radiologic features are not specific for pneumonia caused by atypical microorganisms. Macrolides are the firstline antibiotics for these infections.

Özet

Öz"Atipik" pnömoni, Mycoplasmapneumoniae, Chlamydophila pneumoniae, Chlamy-dophila psittaci, Bordetella pertussis ve Legionellatürlerinin neden olduğu toplum kökenli pnömonilerden farklı ve genellikle daha hafif klinik tablo ile seyreden pnömonilerdir. Mycoplasmapneumoniae özellikle 5 - 15 yaşlarındaki çocuklardaki en sık etkendir. Genellikle hafif ve kendini sınırlayan enfeksiyonlara neden olmakla birlikte,ağır klinik tablolar ya da akciğer dışı enfeksiyonlar da görülebilmektedir. Semptomlar ve radyolojik özellikler atipik mikroorganizmaların neden olduğu pnömoni için özgül değildir. Makrolidler bu enfeksiyonlar için ilk basamak antibiyotiklerdir.
