Congenital tuberculosis is uncommon, and nosocomial transmission from a congenitally infected infant to another infant has not been reported in the English literature. We report an investigation of 2 infants with tuberculosis who were cared for in the same neonatal intensive care unit. Isolates from both infants were genetically indistinguishable. Transmission between the 2 infants was likely due to contaminated respiratory equipment.
先天性结核病并不常见，英文文献中尚未报道过先天性感染婴儿将结核病传染给另一名婴儿的医院内传播情况。我们报告了对在同一新生儿重症监护病房接受治疗的2名患结核病婴儿的调查。两名婴儿的分离株在基因上无法区分。这两名婴儿之间的传播可能是由于呼吸设备受到污染。
