一名妇女在怀孕的头三个月出现肺炎和肺门淋巴结病后，暴露于产羔母羊。她后来流产了。证实感染绵羊源鹦鹉热衣原体。孕妇易受这种感染，可能导致危及生命的疾病。该患者还具有结节病的特征，并且这两种疾病的时间进程相似。有一种可能性是羊鹦鹉热引起的疾病与结节病难以区分。
A woman in the first trimester of pregnancy presented with pneumonia and hilar lymphadenopathy after exposure to lambing ewes. She subsequently aborted. Infection with Chlamydia psittaci of ovine origin was confirmed. Pregnant women are susceptible to this infection, which may cause life threatening disease. The patient also had features of sarcoidosis, and the two conditions ran a similar time course. There is a possibility that ovine psittacosis caused an illness indistinguishable from sarcoidosis.
