  • Title: Isolation of Mycoplasma pneumoniae from pleural fluid and/or cerebrospinal fluid: report of four cases.
    Author: Nagayama Y, Sakurai N, Tamai K, Niwa A, Yamamoto K.
    Journal: Scand J Infect Dis; 1987; 19(5):521-4. PubMed ID: 3122315.
    Abstract:
    Mycoplasma pneumoniae was isolated from pleural exudates of 2 children with pleuropneumonia. The organism was also isolated from cerebrospinal fluid of a child with meningeal manifestations and from the cerebrospinal fluid as well as pleural exudate of another child who died 21 days after onset of disease. More extensive attempts to cultivate M. pneumoniae from nonpulmonary sites are recommended.
