Weil's Disease Presenting with Diffuse Alveolar Hemorrhage: A Case Report

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic infection caused by spirochetes that usually occurs in rural areas. The clinical picture can range from self-limiting mild leptospirosis to acute respiratory distress syndrome and ichterohemorrhagic leptospirosis characterized by jaundice, renal failure and bleeding progressing to multi-organ dysfunction syndrome. In this study, we aimed to present the leptospirosis case that we followed up in the intensive care unit.
