초록

The human metapneumovirus virus (hMPV) is a recently described human respiratory pathogen. The virus has usually been associated with upper and lower respiratory tract infections in children. Since most of the available data on the clinical manifestations come from observational studies on children, relatively little is known of emerging hMPV infections in the adult population in Korea. A 32-year old female patient, presenting fever, chills, cough and sputum for 3 days progressed to severe pneumonia during the season of pandemic influenza A/H1N1-2009. RT-PCR screening of viral pathogens revealed hMPV. Clinical improvement was achieved a week after illness. This case represents severe hMPV pneumonia developed in an immunocompetent adult.

Abstract

A 32-year old female patient, presenting fever, chills, cough and sputum for 3 days progressed to severe pneumonia during the season of pandemic influenza A/H1N1-2009. RT-PCR screening of viral pathogens revealed hMPV. Clinical improvement was achieved a week after illness. This case represents severe hMPV pneumonia developed in an immunocompetent adult.
