摘要

喉气管支气管炎(LTB)是一种常见病在儿科人群，它是由真菌感染引起的很少。真菌性LTB引起的急性呼吸衰竭主要发生在免疫功能低下的患者中，早期诊断与发病率和死亡率密切相关。然而，对儿科医生来说，适当的诊断是具有挑战性的，因为曲霉菌引起的LTB的症状和体征是非特异性的。在这里，我们报告了一例怀疑原发性免疫缺陷的儿童由假膜性LTB引起的进行性呼吸衰竭，并强调了早期调查的重要性，特别是在免疫功能低下的患者中。

Aspergillus Laryngotracheobronchitis in a Child with Primary Immunodeficiency

Laryngotracheobronchitis (LTB) is a common disease in the pediatric population, and it is rarely caused by a fungal infection. Acute respiratory failure caused by fungal LTB mainly occurs in immunocompromised patients, and early diagnosis is closely associated with morbidity and mortality. However, an appropriate diagnosis is challenging for pediatricians because symptoms and signs of LTB caused by Aspergillus spp. are nonspecific. Here, we report a case of progressive respiratory failure caused by pseudomembranous LTB in a child with a suspicion of primary immunodeficiency and highlight the importance of an early investigation, especially in immunocompromised patients.

期刊介绍： Pediatric Infection and Vaccine is an official publication of the Korean Society of Pediatric Infectious Diseases and a peer-reviewed, open-access, multidisciplinary journal directed to physicians and other health care professionals who manage infectious diseases of childhood. The editorial board calls for the articles that originate from worldwide research or clinical study groups and the publication is determined by the editors and reviewers who are the experts in the specific field of infectious diseases of childhood. The categories of manuscripts are original articles, case reports, reviews and rapid communication. The Journal is published triannually and distributed to members of the Korean Society of Pediatric Infectious Diseases, medical schools, libraries and related institutes to persue the academic advancement in infectious diseases and to promote active communication between the members and international societies of pediatric infectious diseases. Eventually, the journal aims to contribute to the cure of infectious diseases of childhood and to the improvement of public health.
