Chlamydia psittaci: a relevant cause of community-acquired pneumonia in two Dutch hospitals.Published in
Neth J Med 2016; 74(2):75-81Publiekssamenvatting
Of all hospitalised community-acquired pneumonias (CAPs) only a few are known to be caused by Chlamydia psittaci. Most likely the reported incidence, ranging from of 0% to 2.1%, is an underestimation of the real incidence, since detection of psittacosis is frequently not incorporated in the routine microbiological diagnostics in CAP or serological methods are used.PMID
