摘要

一名患有慢性阻塞性肺病并需要补充氧气的 67 岁免疫功能健全男性患者出现气短，最初因支气管炎加重接受治疗，初步怀疑为细菌性肺炎。后来发现他患有 EBV 肺炎，经支气管肺泡灌洗液 PCR 检测确诊为 EBV 阳性。急性 EBV 感染导致肺部严重受累的报道很少见。针对这种病症的治疗方法尚未确立，仅有少数关于使用阿昔洛韦和类固醇的报道。本报告介绍了急性 EBV 肺炎的表现、诊断和治疗。

Never too old: A case of fatal epstein barr virus pneumonia in an immunocompetent adult

A 67-year-old immunocompetent male with COPD on supplemental oxygen presented with shortness of breath and was initially treated for bronchitis exacerbation with initial suspicion of bacterial pneumonia. He was later found to have EBV pneumonia diagnosed via positive EBV on bronchoalveolar lavage PCR. Severe lung involvement has been rarely reported in context of acute EBV infection. Treatment for this entity has not yet been established, with few reports of acyclovir and steroid use. This report describes the presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of acute EBV pneumonia.
