CONT

En clinique, le diagnostic [de la leptospirose] n'est souvent évoqué que chez les adultes professionnellement exposés : vétérinaires, bergers, fermiers. Il s'agit de la classique maladie des porchers.[...] La plupart des cas observés sont dus à Leptospira ictero-hemorragiæ, Leptospira canicola, Leptospira pomona, Leptospira ballum.[...] Les multiples localisations de l'infection, hépatique, rénale et méningée, la possibilité fréquente d'une atteinte pulmonaire, voire cardiaque, rendent compte de la diversité des tableaux cliniques observés.
