Pancreatic involvement in Legionella pneumonia

S Franchini et al. Infection. 2015 Jun.

Abstract

Legionella-associated pancreatitis has been rarely reported. Since this condition is very rarely suspected and investigated in patients with Legionella pneumonia, its incidence is probably underestimated. Here we report a case of Legionella pneumonia-associated pancreatitis and review the relevant related literature.
