Gordonia species are emerging pathogens that are often misidentified as Rhodococcus or Nocardia species but are reliably distinguished by 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing. We present a case series of 6 episodes of catheter-associated infection caused by Gordonia species in 5 patients seen at a tertiary care pediatric hospital and describe the management and outcomes of this infection in adults and children.
戈登氏菌属是新兴的病原体,常被误鉴定为红球菌属或诺卡氏菌属,但通过16S核糖体RNA基因测序可可靠地区分。我们报告了在一家三级护理儿科医院就诊的5例患者中由戈登氏菌属引起的6例导管相关感染病例系列,并描述了成人和儿童这种感染的管理及结果。
