Abstract
The diagnosis of Branhamella catarrhalis pneumonia in five cases was established by culture of pulmonary secretions obtained by transtracheal aspiration. B catarrhalis caused an acute lobar pneumonia which usually responded promptly to appropriate antimicrobial therapy. Recognition that this organism may cause pneumonia in a nonimmunocompromised person should alert clinicians to consider it as a possible pathogen when Gramnegative diplococci are seen on smears of specimens from the lower respiratory tract.
摘要
通过经气管抽吸获得的肺分泌物培养确诊了5例卡他布兰汉菌肺炎。卡他布兰汉菌引起急性大叶性肺炎，通常对适当的抗菌治疗反应迅速。认识到这种微生物可能在免疫功能正常的人身上引起肺炎，应提醒临床医生，当在下呼吸道标本涂片中看到革兰阴性双球菌时，要将其视为可能的病原体。
