Elizabethkingia meningoseptica is an unusual, highly resistant, gram- negative bacillus. While E. meningoseptica-associated meningitis outbreaks have been well-documented in hospital neonatal wards and among immunocompromised adults, reports describing this microorganism in critically ill children are scarce. The purpose of this report was to describe a case of a 3 year-old girl who developed pneumonia caused by E. meningoseptica in the setting of previous use of broad-spectrum antibiotics and to review the pediatric literature regarding this pathogen.
脑膜败血伊丽莎白金杆菌是一种罕见、高度耐药的革兰氏阴性杆菌。虽然在医院新生儿病房和免疫功能低下的成年人中，与脑膜败血伊丽莎白金杆菌相关的脑膜炎暴发已有充分记录，但关于这种微生物在危重症儿童中的报道却很少。本报告的目的是描述一名3岁女孩在先前使用广谱抗生素的情况下发生脑膜败血伊丽莎白金杆菌所致肺炎的病例，并回顾有关该病原体的儿科文献。
