We describe two cases of Clostridium glycolicum wound infections in immunocompetent adults. The bacterium was identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. This is the third published report of the recovery of this organism from human clinical material and highlights the importance of the organism as a potential human pathogen. Our report extends the spectrum of the diseases caused by C. glycolicum.
我们描述了两例免疫功能正常的成年人发生的乙二醇梭菌伤口感染病例。该细菌通过16S rRNA基因测序鉴定。这是第三篇关于从人类临床材料中分离出这种微生物的发表报告,突出了该微生物作为潜在人类病原体的重要性。我们的报告扩展了乙二醇梭菌所致疾病的范围。
