A member asked:

What is a type of pneumonia that is similar to bilobar pneumonia?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Description: Bilobar simply means that two anatomically defined areas of the lung are involved. This does not necessarily have anything to do with the causative agent or the mechanism by which the pneumonia occurred, although it might.
