Özet
The majority of cold and flu-like illnesses are caused by rhinoviruses. However rhinoviruses are also associated with more serious illness, such as exacerbation of asthma, wheezing, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and fatal pneumonia in immunocompromised patients. Human rhinovirus is a major cause of acute viral respiratory tract infections in hospitalized children. In this article we present a 3-month-old girl who was admitted to our pediatric intensive care unit with complaints of difficulty in breathing and severe pneumonia. During her treatment for pneumonia caused by rhinovirus infection acute respiratory distress sy-drome was onset so she was supported with mechanical ventilation for 18 days. After total treatment of three weeks, patient was discharged without any sequela.
