Mycobacterium ulcerans disease (MUD) is rapidly reemerging in many countries, especially in West African countries. Antecedent trauma has often been related to the lesions that characterize this frequently crippling disease. We report here the first case of MUD that followed a human bite at the site where the lesion later occurred.
溃疡分枝杆菌病(MUD)正在许多国家迅速再度出现,尤其是在西非国家。先前的创伤常常与这种往往导致残疾的疾病所特有的病变有关。我们在此报告首例因人类咬伤后在咬伤部位出现病变而引发的溃疡分枝杆菌病。
