ABSTRACT
An influenza pandemic due to a novel influenza A/H1N1 virus occurred after April 2009. This virus has some characteristics that differentiate it from the seasonal influenza virus. The 2009 pandemic influenza A/H1N1 virus can frequently infect the lower respiratory tract, and it might cause acute tracheobronchitis as well as pneumonia. Viral-bacterial interaction is well known as an important mechanism of the pathogenesis of respiratory complications of influenza. Herein, we report on a case that presented with pseudomembranous tracheobronchitis complicated by coinfection with 2009 pandemic influenza A/H1N1 and Staphylococcus aureus. We also review the relevent literature.
