Abstract:
A case of acute haemorrhagic, ultimately fatal, pancreatitis in a 72-year-old man is presented. No pneumonia was found. High IgM-titres to Legionella micdadei were demonstrated. In addition 11 patients treated for pancreatitis were studied retrospectively. None had elevated titres to L. micdadei or L. pneumophila.
