[Surviving case of Legionella pneumonia showing a high level of serum KL-6 and complicated with rhabdomyolysis].

A 66-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with pyrexia up to 40 degrees C since one day after taking a public bath. Since multiple infiltrations on the lung were shown by chest radiography, severe pneumonia was diagnosed. Administration of antibiotics meropenem and erythromycin yielded no detected effect.
