Ochrobactrum anthropi is an emerging pathogen in immunocompromised hosts, particularly in patients with indwelling catheters. We report the characteristics of 14 O. anthropi bacteremic episodes in 11 children with Hickman-type central catheters. Children presented with fever and nonspecific clinical manifestations. Bacteremia was successfully treated with antibiotics, but catheter removal was necessary to achieve cure in four cases.
嗜水气单胞菌是免疫功能低下宿主，尤其是留置导管患者中的一种新兴病原体。我们报告了11例带有希克曼型中心导管的儿童发生的14起嗜水气单胞菌菌血症事件的特征。患儿表现为发热和非特异性临床表现。菌血症通过抗生素治疗成功，但有4例病例需要拔除导管才能治愈。
