Abstract

We report the case of a 62-year-old man who developed bronchiolitis obliterans with organizing pneumonia (BOOP) associated with acute Coxiella burnetii infection. The diagnosis of BOOP was made by fiber-optic transbronchial biopsy. Treatment with corticosteroids resulted in rapid clinical improvement and complete resolution of airspace opacities. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first well-documented case of BOOP associated with C. burnetii infection. This case suggests that this infection might trigger the development of BOOP.

摘要

我们报告了一例62岁男性患者，其发生了与急性伯氏考克斯体感染相关的闭塞性细支气管炎伴机化性肺炎（BOOP）。BOOP的诊断通过纤维支气管镜经支气管活检作出。使用皮质类固醇治疗后临床迅速改善，气腔实变完全消退。据我们所知，这是第一例有充分记录的与伯氏考克斯体感染相关的BOOP病例。该病例提示这种感染可能引发BOOP的发生。
