| Sumario: | Introduction: Pneumonia is a disease of the lung parenchyma that affects a large number of the population, including children, being one of the main causes of mortality and morbidity in this last group, especially in children under 5 years of age. The most frequent etiology of childhood asthma is allergic, due to a familial atopic predisposition. Currently, asthma affects more than 300 million people worldwide. General objective: Presentation of a clinical case of pneumonia and allergic asthma in a 4-year-old female patient who came to the clinic for dyspnea, fever, productive cough and nocturnal diaphoresis. Results: In the chest x-ray, bilateral alveolar infiltrate was reported, more striking in the right lung in a segment of the upper, middle and lower lobe, these findings are consistent with the diagnostic suspicion of community-acquired pneumonia. Conclusions: Using the Wood-Downes-Ferrés scale, the patient's asthmatic crisis was classified as a moderate asthmatic crisis, obtaining a total of 5 points within the parameters of this scale. Through chest X-ray, Community-Acquired Pneumonia with alveolar involvement and multilobar location was diagnosed. |
