Abstract

We report the case of a 24-year-old man who sustained a scalp laceration in a diving accident. His wound became infected, and he was treated with an oral cephalosporin, with subsequent progression of the infection. Cultures subsequently grew Aeromonas hydrophila. Many strains of Aeromonas are not sensitive to the antibiotics commonly used for wound infections. Aeromonas must be suspected as a pathogen in all wounds occurring in fresh water if proper treatment is to be initiated.

摘要

我们报告了一例24岁男性在潜水事故中头皮撕裂伤的病例。他的伤口发生感染，接受了口服头孢菌素治疗，但感染仍继续发展。随后培养出嗜水气单胞菌。许多气单胞菌菌株对常用于伤口感染的抗生素不敏感。如果要开始适当的治疗，在所有发生于淡水中的伤口中都必须怀疑气单胞菌为病原体。
