Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of pediatric patients with bronchiec-tasis caused by Mycoplasma pneumonia (MP) and Chlamydia pneumonia (CP). Methods The clinical data from 27 MP and CP pneumonia pediatric patients with bronchiectasis suggested by the high resolution CT were retrospectively analyzed. Results The morbility rate of bronchiectasis caused by MP and CP pneumonia is 0.56%. The mean age of these patients was 75.4 ± 52.7 months. Among them, 27 cases (100%) had cough, 19 cases (70.4%) had fever, 10 cases (37%) had respiratory distress and 20 cases had lung auscultation. Sixteen cases were MP-IgM positive, 5 cases (18.5%) were CP-IgM positive and 6 cases (22.2%) were positive of both. Eight cases were combined with other pathogens infections, in which 6 cases were bacterial infections. The imaging ifndings showed diffuse bronchiectasis in 13 cases (48.1%) and local bronchiectasis in14 cases (51.9%). The bronchoscopy found endothelium in-lfammation, mucosal swelling, partial erosion and follicular hyperplasia in 16 cases (66.7%), the formation of short column sputum bolt in 5 cases (20.8%), in which 1 case had plastic bronchitis. All patients were treated with macrolides antibiotics, 10 cases (37%) combined with methylprednisolone, 3 cases (11.1%) combined with immunoglobulin and 20 cases (74%) combined with other anti-biotics. The average length of hospitalization was 12±4.3 days. The bronchiectasis sign disappeared within 4 months in 23 cases (92%). Two cases (8%) still had bronchiectasis after 9 to 15 months, with the recurrent pneumonia. Conclusions MP and CP pneumonia can lead to acute bronchiectasis. Most of patients are recoverable with effective treatment.
