Atypical pneumonia.
[legionellosis]
We
present
the
key
advances
in
the
infections
that
clinicians
conventionally
associate
with
atypical
pneumonia
:
legionellosis
,
Mycoplasma
pneumonia
,
Chlamydophila
species
pneumonia
and
Q
fever
.
There
have
been
significant
developments
in
molecular
diagnosis
to
include
Mycoplasma
pneumoniae
and
Chlamydophila
pneumoniae
in
multiplex
PCR
of
respiratory
specimens
.
There
are
diagnostic
challenges
in
distinguishing
carriage
from
infection
,
which
is
recognized
in
C
.
pneumoniae
and
now
also
evident
in
M
.
pneumoniae
.
Macrolide-resistant
M
.
pneumoniae
has
emerged
in
Asia
.
There
are
new
antimicrobials
on
the
horizon
in
the
ketolide
class
with
activity
against
typical
and
atypical
pathogens
and
useful
empirical
agents
.
There
are
few
advances
in
our
knowledge
of
the
epidemiology
of
atypical
pathogens
or
the
effectiveness
of
antimicrobial
therapy--empirical
or
pathogen
specific
.
However
,
if
molecular
testing
becomes
widely
implemented
,
there
will
be
an
increased
understanding
of
the
epidemiology
and
presentation
of
atypical
pneumonia
and
a
shift
to
more
targeted
antimicrobial
therapy
.
