The case of a Hickman catheter-related bacteremia caused by Gordonia sputi in a patient with breast cancer is presented. Blood cultures grew a Gram-positive rod, susceptible to several antimicrobials, subsequently identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing as Gordonia sputi. The infection resolved after successful treatment with antibiotics and catheter removal.
本文介绍了一例乳腺癌患者因戈登氏菌引起的希克曼导管相关菌血症病例。血培养分离出一株革兰氏阳性杆菌,对多种抗菌药物敏感,随后通过16S rRNA基因测序鉴定为戈登氏菌。经抗生素治疗并拔除导管后感染得到缓解。
