##article.abstract##
The aim of the current study was the investigation of the clinical features of ornithosis and respiratory mycoplasma infection during autumn outbreak in 2012 in 58 patients admitted to the Institute of influenza department of adult respiratory viral infections based at St Petersburg Botkin Infectious Diseases Hospital. It has been shown that the concomitant ornithosis and respiratory mycoplasma infection were registered more often in the group of young patients and the finding was statistically significant. Pulmonary form of the infection was registered more often in patients with respiratory mycoplasmosis. It was found that in patients with mycoplasma infection catarrhal and constitutional symptoms were longer in duration than in ornithosis or in concomitant ornithosis and mycoplasmosis and the findings were statistically significant. Macrolide antibiotics can be considered as the first-line medications in treatment of respiratory mycoplasmosis and ornithosis. According to our data, these antibiotics were more effective in ornithosis.
