title: Severe acute respiratory syndrome without respiratory symptoms or abnormal chest radiograph findings.
abstract: We report a serologically confirmed case of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in a 27-year-old health care worker. The patient reported no respiratory complaints, and the findings of serial chest radiographs were normal. This case illustrates the wide spectrum of clinical illness caused by infection with SARS coronavirus.
