[Mycoplasma pneumonia in children].
Roentgenographic findings of bilateral interstitial involvement without segmental consolidation and with regional lymphadenitis, when occurs after infancy, are always suggestive of pneumonia caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae, as this is one of the most frequent typis of pneumonia in children. M. pneumoniae can be presumed from the discrepancy between the extensive roentgenographic findings and the generally good condition of the patient. Before therapy is decided upon it is important to know what the etiology is.
