Abstract:
A survey of development of our knowledge about Legionnaires' disease since its detection to the first epidemics in Yugoslavia, is given. The etiology, pathogenesis, epidemiology, clinic and therapy of legionellosis are summarized. It is pointed out that the detection of Legionnaires' disease and successful fight against legionella infections require a close cooperation of clinicians, microbiologists, epidemiologists and corresponding technical experts. Their active attitude toward this disease is the basis of its prevention.

Pneumonia II: Pathophysiology
Pulmonary Tuberculosis I
Causative Organism
The primary infectious agent causing tuberculosis is Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a slow-growing, acid-fast, aerobic rod that exhibits sensitivity to heat and ultraviolet light. Instances of Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium contributing to the development of TB infection are rare.
