We report the first described case of pulmonary tularaemia in the pediatric patient receiving infliximab for ulcerative colitis. We highlight the importance of considering Francisella tularensis in diagnostically challenging cases of persistent respiratory symptoms to facilitate early diagnosis and adequate therapy. The TCR‐γδ + DN T cells are gaining important role in clinical practice. Polymerase chain reaction assays and serology guarantee early recognition.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
