Coming soonProteus bronchitis refers to a lower respiratory tract infection characterized by acute inflammation of the tracheobronchial tree caused by Gram-negative bacilli of the genus *Proteus*, most commonly *Proteus mirabilis*.
Although bronchitis is predominantly viral, *Proteus* species act as opportunistic pathogens, primarily affecting hospitalized patients, elderly individuals, or immunocompromised hosts with structural lung disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or artificial airways.
Pathophysiologically, bacterial colonization and proliferation trigger mucosal edema, hypersecretion, and neutrophilic infiltration, clinically presenting with persistent productive cough, purulent sputum, dyspnea, and low-grade fever in the absence of radiographic evidence of pneumonia.
