Abstract

Infection with Listeria monocytogenes is rare in infants and children. Listeriosis has been made a notifiable condition in the State of California since 1985. From January 1985 to December 1990, only seven cases of listeriosis have been reported in children less than or equal to 13 years of age. This brief report summarises the features of a fatal case of listeria meningitis in an immunocompromised 4-month-old infant, discusses diagnostic and therapeutic implications, and describes the other six cases.

摘要

婴儿和儿童感染单核细胞增生李斯特菌的情况较为罕见。自1985年起，李斯特菌病在加利福尼亚州成为须报告的疾病。1985年1月至1990年12月期间，13岁及以下儿童中仅报告了7例李斯特菌病病例。本简要报告总结了一名免疫功能低下的4个月大婴儿患致命性李斯特菌脑膜炎的病例特征，讨论了诊断和治疗意义，并描述了其他6例病例。
