Tetanus is a neuromuscular disease in which Clostridium tetani exotoxin (tetanospasmin) produces muscle spasms, incapacitating its host. To our knowledge, C. tetani bacteraemia has never been reported in the literature. The ideal management of this entity remains unresolved given that there is no literature to guide the therapy.
破伤风是一种神经肌肉疾病,其中破伤风梭菌外毒素(痉挛毒素)会导致肌肉痉挛,使宿主丧失能力。据我们所知,破伤风梭菌菌血症在文献中从未有过报道。由于没有文献可以指导治疗,这种疾病的理想治疗方法仍未解决。
