Legionnaires' disease caused by Legionella londiniensis.

Christina Stallworth1, Lisa Steed, Mark A Fisher, Frederick S Nolte.   

Abstract

Legionella londiniensis has been isolated from aqueous environments. However, to our knowledge, this organism has never been isolated from clinical specimens. A case of Legionnaires' disease in a hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipient caused by this organism is described, which confirms that L. londiniensis can be an opportunistic pathogen.
