Viruses are the most common cause of acute lower respiratory tract. The respiratory syncytial virus infection is most commonly associated with viral bronchiolitis. Rhinovirus and coronavirus OC43 are less frequently responsible for lower respiratory tract infections. The virological spectrum has expanded greatly owing to the development of molecular biology techniques. We report the clinical case of a four-month-old infant who presented with acute lower respiratory infection with coronavirus OC43 (HCoV-OC43) and rhinovirus complicated by a particularly extensive spontaneous pneumomediastinum.
病毒是急性下呼吸道感染最常见的病因。呼吸道合胞病毒感染最常与病毒性细支气管炎相关。鼻病毒和冠状病毒OC43引起下呼吸道感染的情况较少见。由于分子生物学技术的发展，病毒学谱已大大扩展。我们报告一例4个月大婴儿的临床病例，该婴儿患有冠状病毒OC43（HCoV-OC43）和鼻病毒引起的急性下呼吸道感染，并并发特别广泛的自发性纵隔气肿。
