Pseudomonas putrefaciens has been described as a rare cause of both lower-limb cellulitis and septicemic illness with significant morbidity. We report a case of P. putrefaciens infection in a patient with refractory lower-limb cellulitis and ulceration complicated by thrombocytopenia, hypotension, and mental obtundation in the apparent absence of bacteremia. This scenario raises the possibility of significant production of exotoxins by P. putrefaciens in vivo.
腐败假单胞菌已被描述为下肢蜂窝织炎和败血症性疾病的罕见病因，具有较高的发病率。我们报告了一例腐败假单胞菌感染病例，该患者患有难治性下肢蜂窝织炎和溃疡，并伴有血小板减少、低血压和精神迟钝，且明显无菌血症。这种情况增加了腐败假单胞菌在体内大量产生外毒素的可能性。
