摘要: Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a common cause of upper and lower respiratory tract infections in persons all ages may be responsible for up to 40% community-acquired pneumonias. A wide array extrapulmonary events accompany the caused by this organism, related autommunity or direct spread. This review includes discussion latest knowledge concerning molecular pathological basis mycoplasmal disease, how organism interacts with host immune system its association development chronic conditions such as asthma, recent emergence macrolide resistance status laboratory diagnostic methods.
