Abstract

A young infant with acute brucellosis is reported. He presented with a septicaemia-like picture. Diagnosis was based on a fourfold rise of Brucella agglutination titres and a positive blood culture. He had been exclusively breast-fed when his mother developed brucellosis 4 weeks after delivery. It is strongly suspected that the transmission of Brucella melitensis to this infant was through the maternal breast-milk.

摘要

报告了一名患有急性布鲁氏菌病的幼儿。他表现出类似败血症的症状。诊断依据是布鲁氏菌凝集滴度升高四倍以及血培养呈阳性。他一直纯母乳喂养，其母亲在分娩后4周患上布鲁氏菌病。强烈怀疑羊种布鲁氏菌传给该婴儿是通过母乳。
