Abstract

Bloodstream infection caused by Clostridium symbiosum was previously reported in only one case, from a highly immunocompromised patient with metastic colon cancer. We describe the second case of clinical bacteraemic sepsis caused by C. symbiosum from a previously healthy man, which underlines the pathogenicity of this species.

摘要

共生梭菌引起的血流感染此前仅在一例报告中出现，该病例为一名患有转移性结肠癌的高度免疫功能低下患者。我们描述了第二例由共生梭菌引起的临床菌血症性败血症病例，患者为一名此前健康的男性，这突出了该菌种的致病性。
