Infección respiratoria causada por Alcaligenes xylosoxidans en un paciente con síndrome de Mounier-Kuhn
Mounier-Kuhn syndrome is a rare entity characterized by abnormal dilatation of the trachea and main bronchi (tracheobronchomegaly). Alcaligenes xylosoxidans is a non fermenting gram-negative pathogen common in extra-and intra-hospital environment, which may be related to immunosuppression states. We...
