[legionellosis]
Hairy
bacilli
of
Legionella
pneumophila
is
widely
widespread
in
the
aquatic
environment
.
Epidemiology
of
the
disease
in
Poland
is
not
known
.
In
any
case
of
sick
of
severe
pneumonia
not
responding
to
treatment
(
antibiotics
beta
-lactams
)
one
should
think
about
Legionella
infection
.
Very
important
is
the
initial
assessment
of
the
risk
of
exposure
to
infection
.
Preferred
test
for
the
diagnosis
of
infection
in
all
patients
hospitalized
with
a
diagnosis
of
severe
pneumonia
is
the
determination
of
Legionella
antigen
in
urine
.
In
the
case
of
confirmation
of
Legionella
infection
is
recommended
to
take
antibiotics
from
the
group
of
fluoroquinolones
.
In
patients
intolerant
to
this
group
the
macrolides
are
applied
.
