چکیده
|
Pulmonary complications in leptospirosis, though common, are often unrecognized in a non-endemic area. we report here a patient with leptospirosis and severe pulmonary involvement who was treatedwith meropenem (1 g every 8 hours), moxifloxacin (400 mg once daily), and high doses of corticosteroids. systemic steroids were continued for 3 months because of persistent pulmonary lesions.
