2026-05-08

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> <bold>Background</bold> Legionella is a common causative pathogen of community-acquired pneumonia, but it encompasses multiple subtypes, with Legionella longbeachae <italic>(</italic> L. longbeachae <italic>)</italic> not being the most frequently encountered. Cavitary pneumonia is exceedingly rare in immunocompetent individuals, and cavitary pneumonia caused specifically by L. l...
