We report a case of Legionella pneumophila pneumonia in a patient with interstitial lung disease. Intensive environmental investigations revealed that a system of all-day-running bathwater was the source of infection. In this case, the concentration of L. pneumophila in the hospital bathwater was low. We therefore emphasize that even a low concentration of L. pneumophila in environmental water can cause serious infections to immunocompromised patients in a hospital.
我们报告了一例间质性肺疾病患者感染嗜肺军团菌肺炎的病例。深入的环境调查显示，全天供应热水的系统是感染源。在该病例中，医院浴水中嗜肺军团菌的浓度较低。因此，我们强调，即使环境水中嗜肺军团菌浓度较低，也可能导致医院内免疫功能低下的患者发生严重感染。
