Application of metagenomic next-generation sequencing in the diagnosis and treatment of acute pneumonia caused by Tropheryma whipplei

The mNGS examination of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid can significantly improve the early diagnosis of acute pneumonia caused by Tropheryma whipplei. The treatment involving imipenem-cilastatin combined with SMZ-TMP, followed by oral SMZ-TMP for three months, is effective.
