Two cases of campylobacter septicaemia are described. The first, caused by Campylobacter laridis was associated with gastroenteritis and occurred in a healthy individual. In the second case, a catalase negative species, C. mucosalis was isolated from blood in an immunocompromised patient with symptoms of pneumonia. Both campylobacter strains grew faintly under the routine culture conditions used. Improved diagnostic procedures for Campylobacter species may thus be warranted.
本文描述了两例弯曲菌败血症病例。第一例由拉氏弯曲菌引起，与肠胃炎有关，发生在一名健康个体身上。第二例中，从一名患有肺炎症状的免疫功能低下患者的血液中分离出一种过氧化氢酶阴性的菌株——粘膜弯曲菌。在常规培养条件下，两种弯曲菌菌株生长微弱。因此，可能需要改进弯曲菌属的诊断程序。
