Abstract excerpt

Here, we describe four cases of laboratory-confirmed Legionella infection. Case 1 was a culture-confirmed case of Legionella infection in a patient with liver cirrhosis. Following this, three other liver cirrhosis cases (cases 2-4) were diagnosed with Legionella infection as confirmed by quantita...
