Trichomonas is a protozoan rarely incriminated in pulmonary or pleural disorders.
An 84-year-old man, under treatment for chronic lymphoid leukemia with hypogammaglobulinemia, was hospitalized for respiratory distress and fever due to bilateral pulmonary and pleural disorders. Direct examination of the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid revealed a flagella protozoan identified as Trichomonas tenax.
Although Trichomonas is rare in pulmonary disorders, when it occurs, T. tenax appears to be the most common species. Treatment with metronidazole was effective.
滴虫是一种原生动物，很少被认为与肺部或胸膜疾病有关。
一名84岁男性，因慢性淋巴细胞白血病伴低丙种球蛋白血症正在接受治疗，因双侧肺部和胸膜疾病导致呼吸窘迫和发热而住院。对支气管肺泡灌洗液的直接检查发现了一种鞭毛虫原生动物，鉴定为口腔毛滴虫。
虽然滴虫在肺部疾病中很少见，但一旦发生，口腔毛滴虫似乎是最常见的种类。甲硝唑治疗有效。
