Moraxella lacunata, a commensal bacterium, is associated with serious invasive disease. We describe a patient with diabetic nephropathy who developed septicemia with metastatic abscesses in the liver and spleen due to Moraxella lacunata. The patient also had multiple ring enhancing lesions in both the cerebral hemispheres, possibly due to the same organism.
腔隙莫拉菌是一种共生菌,与严重的侵袭性疾病有关。我们描述了一名患有糖尿病肾病的患者,该患者因腔隙莫拉菌感染发生败血症,并在肝脏和脾脏出现转移性脓肿。该患者双侧大脑半球还出现多个环形强化病灶,可能由同一病原体引起。
