Legionnaires' disease in leukaemic reticuloendotheliosis.

G Berlin, A Frydén, R Maller, C Malm, O Vikrot.   

Abstract

At our hospital 15 cases of leukaemic reticuloendotheliosis and 4 cases of legionnaires' disease have been diagnosed. 3 patients had both diseases. The clinical findings are reported. It is probable that patients with leukaemic reticuloendotheliosis have an increased susceptibility to Legionnaires' disease. Possible reasons for the decreased resistance are discussed.
