Annual Review of Medicine, 1980
Legionella pneumophila infections frequently manifest themselves as a multisystem disease with acute pneumonia. Certain clinical and laboratory features are helpful in diagnosis but none are pathognomonic. Diagnosis frequently must be made clinically and erythromycin given presumptively because of the delay in seroconversion but culture and direct ...

The Lancet, 2016
Since first identified in early 1977, bacteria of the genus Legionella are recognised as a common cause of community-acquired pneumonia and a rare cause of hospital-acquired pneumonia. Legionella bacteria multisystem manifestations mainly affect susceptible patients as a result of age, underlying debilitating conditions, or immunosuppression.

Legionnaire's disease is a nonzoonotic atypical pneumonia caused by Legionella sp that occurs sporadically or in outbreaks. Legionnaire's disease pneumonia is accompanied by several extrapulmonary clinical and laboratory findings. Rather than testing all pneumonias for Legionnaire's disease, the clinical challenge is to recognize the diagnostic ...

Legionnaires' Disease in Children
Pediatrics, 1981In a retrospective survey of sera collected from 126 patients under the age of 10 years, seroreactivity was first detected at 1 year of age when the geometric mean titer rose from 12 to 24. This activity increased to a titer of 102 in the 4- to 6-year-old group and was maintained in the 7- to 9-year-old group.
