Bacillus cereus is rarely a pulmonary pathogen but may cause pneumonia in immunocompromised patients. A patient with bronchiectasis and no recognisable immunodeficiency had this organism isolated during two infective exacerbations, once from respiratory secretions and once by blood culture. Ciprofloxacin treatment was effective on both occasions.
蜡样芽孢杆菌很少作为肺部病原体,但可能在免疫功能低下的患者中引起肺炎。一名患有支气管扩张且无明显免疫缺陷的患者在两次感染加重期分离出这种病原体,一次从呼吸道分泌物中分离出来,一次通过血培养分离出来。两次治疗时环丙沙星均有效。
