  • Title: Foolers: things that look like pneumonia in children.
    Author: Oermann CM, Moore RH.
    Journal: Semin Respir Infect; 1996 Sep; 11(3):204-13. PubMed ID: 8883178.
    Abstract:
    Pulmonary infiltrates on chest radiographs are common findings in the pediatric age group and are generally associated with acute infectious pneumonias. Occasionally, however, these "pneumonias" fail to respond to appropriate antibiotic therapy. Under these circumstances, noninfectious conditions that may be associated with pulmonary infiltrates should be considered. Thus, it is important that physicians who care for children have some knowledge of these potential "mimickers" of childhood pneumonia.
