Title | A mixed bacterial infection of a bronchogenic lung cyst diagnosed by PCR. |
Journal | J Med Microbiol |
Abstract |
An unusual paediatric case of a bronchogenic cyst infected with both Haemophilus influenzae type b and Streptococcus pneumoniae is described, which was detected not by culture of the purulent cyst fluid, but by real-time PCR amplification for several potential pathogens of DNA extracted from the fluid. |
