Acute lymphoblastic leukemia was diagnosed in a 7-year-old girl. Two months after insertion of a central venous catheter, she developed fever and complained of headache and abdominal pain. Physical examination revealed no focus of infection. A gram-negative nonfermenting bacillus was recurrently cultured from blood. Extensive biochemical testing and 16S ribosomal DNA sequencing led to the identification of Ralstonia gilardii.
一名7岁女孩被诊断为急性淋巴细胞白血病。在插入中心静脉导管两个月后,她出现发热,并主诉头痛和腹痛。体格检查未发现感染灶。血液中反复培养出一种革兰氏阴性非发酵杆菌。广泛的生化检测和16S核糖体DNA测序鉴定出该菌为吉氏罗尔斯通氏菌。
