Pneumonitis caused by varicella infection is a serious and potentially life-threatening complication of the disease when it occurs in adults. The incidence of this complication has increased in the last 10 years.
We report the case of a non-immunocompromised patient admitted to hospital because of varicella pneumonia not requiring intensive care. Bronchoscopy revealed vesicular lesions on the bronchial mucosa. The patient made a full recovery with anti-viral therapy.
Vesicular lesions can be observed on the bronchial mucosa of adult patients with varicella zoster infection.
水痘感染引起的肺炎是该疾病在成人中发生时的一种严重且可能危及生命的并发症。在过去10年中,这种并发症的发生率有所上升。
我们报告了一例非免疫功能低下的患者,因水痘肺炎入院,无需重症监护。支气管镜检查显示支气管黏膜有水泡样病变。该患者通过抗病毒治疗完全康复。
在水痘带状疱疹感染的成年患者的支气管黏膜上可观察到水泡样病变。
