Bordetella holmesii is a gram-negative rod that was initially identified in 1995. It causes bacteremia, pneumonia, and endocarditis mostly in patients with anatomical or functional asplenia. We report here, to the best of our knowledge, the first case of B. holmesii bacteremia in a renal transplant recipient following rituximab therapy for recurrence of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.
霍氏博德特菌是一种革兰氏阴性杆菌,于1995年首次被鉴定出来。它主要在患有解剖学或功能性无脾症的患者中引起菌血症、肺炎和心内膜炎。据我们所知,我们在此报告了首例肾移植受者在接受利妥昔单抗治疗膜增生性肾小球肾炎复发后发生霍氏博德特菌菌血症的病例。
