We report a case of necrotizing fasciitis caused by Vibrio cholerae O137 in an immunocompromised 49-year-old man. The infection was acquired following a minor traumatic injury and exposure to seawater during the summer of 2009 in Italy. Although highly immunocompromised, the patient survived. The strain was cytotoxic, invasive, and adhesive and contained a fragment of the El Tor-like hemolysin (El Tor hlyA) gene.
我们报告了一例由创伤后感染创伤弧菌引起的坏死性筋膜炎,患者为 49 岁免疫功能低下男性。该感染发生于 2009 年夏季在意大利,患者在接触海水的情况下发生了轻微创伤。尽管患者免疫功能严重低下,但仍存活下来。该菌株具有细胞毒性、侵袭性和黏附性,并含有一段类似于 El Tor 样溶血素(El Tor hlyA)的基因片段。
