Mycoplasma pneumoniae–Associated Bronchiolitis Obliterans Following Acute Bronchiolitis

Abstract The characteristics of Mycoplasma pneumonia (M. pneumoniae)-associated bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) are not well known. We retrospectively reviewed 17 patients with M. pneumoniae–associated BO. All patients had M. pneumoniae–associated acute bronchiolitis prior to the development of BO. In...
