While group C beta hemolytic streptococcal infections are uncommon in humans, group C beta hemolytic streptococcal pneumonia is exceedingly rare. To the best of our knowledge, only 2 cases of necrotizing pneumonia caused by group C beta hemolytic streptococcus have been reported in the past. Thus, we are reporting a rare case of necrotizing group C beta hemolytic streptococcal pneumonia in a young healthy adult with no risk factors.
虽然 C 群β溶血性链球菌感染在人类中并不常见,但 C 群β溶血性链球菌肺炎却极为罕见。据我们所知,过去仅报告过 2 例由 C 群β溶血性链球菌引起的坏死性肺炎。因此,我们报告了一例罕见的无危险因素的年轻健康成人坏死性 C 群β溶血性链球菌肺炎病例。
