Infection due to Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus during pregnancy is uncommon in humans. We report a case of a pregnant woman who experienced premature labor. The infant was diagnosed with neonatal sepsis due to C. fetus subsp. fetus, and was successfully treated with carbapenem. Maternal clinical symptoms and severe villitis suggested that the route of fetal infection was hematogenous spread. We also review previous reports in the literature that describe this infection during pregnancy.
胎儿弯曲菌胎儿亚种感染在孕期人类中并不常见。我们报告一例孕妇发生早产的病例。该婴儿被诊断为因胎儿弯曲菌胎儿亚种引起的新生儿败血症,并成功接受碳青霉烯治疗。母亲的临床症状和严重绒毛炎提示胎儿感染途径为血行播散。我们还回顾了文献中先前描述孕期这种感染的报告。
