Abstract

A 42-year-old obese patient was admitted to our hospital due to dyspnoea and high fever. He was diagnosed with pneumonia, which progressed rapidly, so that he had to be transferred to the intensive care unit for mechanical ventilation. A/H1N1v-infection was diagnosed after no causative agent could be detected initially. The patient's condition improved under oseltamivir, which was administered over ten days.
