A case of Alcaligenes faecalis septicaemia occurring after appendicectomy is described, and previous reports of this condition are briefly reviewed. Alcaligenes is frequently found in the faeces of healthy people and systemic infections appear to be very uncommon. Nevertheless, if the organism is cultured from the blood it should not be dismissed as a contaminant without careful investigation.
本文描述了一例阑尾切除术后发生的粪产碱杆菌败血症病例,并简要回顾了此前关于该病症的报道。粪产碱杆菌在健康人的粪便中很常见,而全身感染似乎非常罕见。然而,如果从血液中培养出该病菌,在未进行仔细调查的情况下,不应将其视为污染物而不予理会。
