Popis: Aim. To study the features of outbreak of community-acquired pneumonia caused by M. pneumoniae in children in the Khabarovsk region during the autumn-winter period 2016 - 2017. Materials and methods. A study was conducted of 30 clinical samples - smears from the posterior pharyngeal wall and sputum samples obtained from patients with community-acquired pneumonia due to M. pneumoniae. Samples were examined for the presence of mutations in the 23S rRNA gene of M. pneumoniae. Results. The age ofthe patients was from 2 to 16 years. In two cases, family foci of the incidence of community-acquired pneumonia occurred. In 19 samples, a mutation was detected in 23S rRNA of M. pneumoniae. Conclusion. The data obtained indicate that in the development of the outbreak of community-acquired pneumonia caused by M. pneumoniae in children in the Khabarovsk region in the autumn-winter period 2016 - 2017, macrolide-resistant strains of the pathogen were involved.
