Abstract

Objective: To observe the CT manifestations of adult mycoplasma pneumonia, provide the basis for clinical diagnosis. Methods: A retrospective case analysis, our hospital in June 2012-CT image in June 2013 confirmed 58 cases of mycoplasma pneumonia collate and analyze. Results: All patients, of which 52 cases(89.66%) CT showed a small nodular or patchy air space opacities(see Figure 1), 6 cases of bilateral, unilateral 20 cases, 45 cases(77.85%) showed ground-glass opacity(see Figure 2), bilateral in 12 cases, 33 cases of unilateral, 32 cases(55.17%) visible thickening of the bronchial vascular bundles, 31 cases(53.45%) showed a tree-in-bud(see Figure 3), five cases of bilateral, unilateral 26 cases, 15 cases(25.86%) visible lymph nodes(see Figure 4), 42 cases(72.41%) patients with lesions confined to a single lobe of. All patients with lesions in 16 cases(27.59%) patients involves more than two lobes, lesions 42 cases(72.41%) patients confined to a single lobe of. Conclusion: CT features of Mycoplasma pneumonia is more obvious, as a basis for the diagnosis and differential diagnosis in clinical practice.
