Listeriosis can be a cause of arthritis. Here, we present a case of Listeria monocytogenes septic arthritis of the right hip in a 66-year-old male treated with mycophenolate mofetil for polyarteritis nodosa. So far, septic arthritis due to this microorganism has not been reported in patients treated with mycophenolate mofetil. We review the literature of L. monocytogenes septic arthritis and discuss the role of mycophenolate mofetil treatment in precipitating listeriosis.
李斯特菌病可引起关节炎。在此，我们报告 1 例 66 岁男性，因多发性大动脉炎接受吗替麦考酚酯治疗，发生李斯特菌单核细胞增生李斯特菌性化脓性关节炎。到目前为止，尚未有报道称在接受吗替麦考酚酯治疗的患者中，因这种微生物引起化脓性关节炎。我们回顾了李斯特菌化脓性关节炎的文献，并讨论了吗替麦考酚酯治疗在引发李斯特菌病中的作用。
