Material and Method: In this study, we evaluated the clinical, radiological, microbiological and biochemical properties of military personnel’s with C. pneumoniae pneumonia, in a military base in 2006. The lobar and segmental distribution of infiltration due to C. pneumoniae was examined by high resolution computerized tomography (HRCT).
Results: Our population was composed of 4000 person approximately. Ninety people were affected by the pneumonia outbreak (2.25%). The diagnosis was made clinically and serologically. All of the patients were male and mean age was 20.5±1.22. Microbiological diagnosis was confirmed by determining specific antibodies in serum by ELISA technique. We found that 53.5% right lung, and 46.5% left lung were affected among all patients. Mostly left lower lobe (34.4%), right lower lobe (26.0%) and middle lobe (25.6%) were affected. The mostly affected segments were; left lower lobe antero-medial segment (16.7%), middle lobe medial (14.9%) and lateral segments (10.7%), left upper lobe lingula inferior segment (10.7%). In none of the patients infiltration were found in the right upper lobe apical segment and left upper lobe apicoposterior segment by HRCT.
Conclusion: In C. pneumoniae related pneumonia, we have observed that lower lobes usually are affected regions. However, when we evaluate according to segmentary infiltration, middle lobe segments are affected more than lower lobe segments. This study point out that when there is an outbreak of pneumonia, in crowded life areas like military corps, and lower and middle lop infiltration were commonly diagnosed by radiologically, C. pneumoniae should be considered first as an in the etiological agent.
