Abstract
Bacteremic Pseudomonas pneumonia is an almost universally fatal condition. Most cases are hospital-acquired and associated with underlying disease. A 64 yr old man presented with community-acquired, bacteremic P. aeruginosa pneumonia without obvious underlying predisposing conditions and survived. Features contributing to his survival are discussed.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
