We reported the case of a child who died of purpura fulminans. The diagnosis of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup C could be assessed using postmortem specimens collected up to 10 h after death. We were able to identify the bacteria by culture and/or PCR on samples without having autopsy performed. Soluble antigens were also detected in serum.
我们报告了一例死于暴发性紫癜的儿童病例。利用死后长达10小时采集的尸检标本，可评估C群脑膜炎奈瑟菌的诊断。我们能够在未进行尸检的情况下，通过对样本进行培养和/或聚合酶链反应（PCR）来鉴定细菌。血清中也检测到了可溶性抗原。
