Aeromonas sobria infection is known to be very serious in immunocompromised hosts. We report a case of A. sobria infection fatal in a subject with decompensated liver cirrhosis. A 63-year-old man with liver cirrhosis admitted for fever and vomiting developed a necrotizing soft-tissue infection in the right lower leg. Despite a decompression incision in the affected limb and intensive care, he died of sepsis one day after surgery. A. sobria was detected afterward in a blood culture.
嗜水气单胞菌感染在免疫功能低下的宿主中被认为非常严重。我们报告一例失代偿期肝硬化患者发生嗜水气单胞菌感染致死的病例。一名63岁肝硬化男性因发热和呕吐入院,随后右小腿出现坏死性软组织感染。尽管对患肢进行了减压切口并给予重症监护,但他在术后一天死于败血症。术后血培养检测到嗜水气单胞菌。
