We report a human case of leptospirosis in which the spirochete was detected by dark-field microscopy examination of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and isolated from both CSF and blood. Leptospira fainei was identified by sequencing the 16S rDNA gene, which had been amplified by polymerase chain reaction. This case confirms the role of L. fainei as a human pathogen and extends its distribution to southern Europe.
我们报告了一例钩端螺旋体病的人类病例，通过对脑脊液（CSF）进行暗视野显微镜检查检测到了螺旋体，并从脑脊液和血液中分离出该病原体。通过对经聚合酶链反应扩增的16S rDNA基因进行测序，鉴定出费氏钩端螺旋体。该病例证实了费氏钩端螺旋体作为人类病原体的作用，并将其分布范围扩展到了欧洲南部。
