Two cases of childhood melioidosis in conjunction with five from the literature are presented. Although most reported cases come from Southeast Asia, importation into the United States by travelers and military personnel has occurred. The course of the disease may be acute or chronic; the onset is generally with fever and pneumonia. Melioidosis should be considered in any patient with pneumonia who has returned recently from an endemic area.
本文报告了2例儿童类鼻疽病病例，并结合文献中的5例进行分析。尽管大多数报告病例来自东南亚，但旅行者和军事人员已将该病输入美国。该病病程可能为急性或慢性；通常起病为发热和肺炎。对于近期从流行地区返回且患有肺炎的任何患者，都应考虑类鼻疽病。
