Nocardia cyriacigeorgica is a recently characterized species within the genus of Nocardia. We report a brain abscess, following a primary pulmonary colonization, due to this species in a human immunodeficiency virus-infected patient. This case confirms that isolation of Nocardia in sputum is associated with a high risk of disseminated infection in immunocompromised patients.
西里亚诺乔治诺卡菌是诺卡菌属中最近被鉴定的一个菌种。我们报告了一例人类免疫缺陷病毒感染患者因该菌种原发性肺部定植后发生脑脓肿的病例。该病例证实,痰中分离出诺卡菌与免疫功能低下患者发生播散性感染的高风险相关。
