Anaerobic ventriculitis is rare, and usually seen in patients with predisposing factors such as otitis media, mastoiditis, sinusitis or recent neurosurgery. We report what we believe to be the first case of ventriculitis and brain abscess due to Fusobacterium nucleatum infection in a man with no significant predisposing factors. He was successfully treated with antibiotic therapy.
厌氧性脑室炎较为罕见，通常见于患有中耳炎、乳突炎、鼻窦炎或近期接受过神经外科手术等易感因素的患者。我们报告了一例我们认为是首例由具核梭杆菌感染引起的脑室炎和脑脓肿病例，该患者无明显易感因素。他通过抗生素治疗成功治愈。
