We describe the first pediatric case of Gemella bergeriae endocarditis in a 15-year-old boy with tetralogy of Fallot and pulmonary atresia who presented with weight loss, chills, and cold intolerance. Blood cultures revealed Gram-positive cocci that failed to type with Lancefield group antiserum. The identification of the organism was confirmed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing.
我们描述了首例15岁患有法洛四联症和肺动脉闭锁的男孩感染伯杰孪生球菌性心内膜炎的儿科病例,该男孩出现体重减轻、寒战和畏寒症状。血培养发现革兰氏阳性球菌,该球菌不能用兰斯菲尔德分组抗血清分型。通过16S rRNA基因测序确认了该微生物的鉴定结果。
