Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection usually presents with upper and lower respiratory tract infection. Extrapulmonary involvement is not uncommon, however. We report two cases of predominantly extrapulmonary manifestations of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection without significant pulmonary involvement. Both cases were diagnosed by serology. These cases illustrate the diversity of clinical presentations of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection. Clinicians should maintain a high index of suspicion.
肺炎支原体感染通常表现为上、下呼吸道感染。然而,肺外受累并不罕见。我们报告两例以肺炎支原体感染的主要肺外表现为主且无明显肺部受累的病例。两例均通过血清学诊断。这些病例说明了肺炎支原体感染临床表现的多样性。临床医生应保持高度的怀疑指数。
