The pattern of pulmonary infections in 59 consecutive bone marrow transplantations in Hong Kong was reviewed. Compared with published data from other marrow transplant units, we had a lower incidence of cytomegalovirus pneumonitis (1.7%) and a higher incidence of mycobacterial infections (5%). The latter is probably related to the high background prevalence of tuberculosis in the local population. Treatment with antituberculous drugs was effective.
回顾了香港59例连续骨髓移植患者的肺部感染模式。与其他骨髓移植单位公布的数据相比,我们的巨细胞病毒性肺炎发病率较低(1.7%),而分枝杆菌感染发病率较高(5%)。后者可能与当地人群中结核病的高背景患病率有关。抗结核药物治疗有效。
