Here we present a case report of a 41-year-old woman suffering from high fever and bacteremia due to Helicobacter canis, 11 months after kidney transplantation. Identification of H. canis was achieved by 16s rDNA sequence analysis of a positive blood culture. The patient was restored fully to health after antibiotics therapy (cefuroxime and ciprofloxacin). Until now, only 4 human clinical cases have been described with H. canis bacteremia. This study describes for the first time, to our knowledge, an infection with H. canis in a kidney transplant patient.
在此，我们报告一例肾移植11个月后因犬幽门螺杆菌感染导致高热和菌血症的41岁女性病例。通过对阳性血培养物进行16s rDNA序列分析鉴定出犬幽门螺杆菌。患者经抗生素治疗（头孢呋辛和环丙沙星）后完全康复。到目前为止，仅有4例犬幽门螺杆菌菌血症的人类临床病例被描述。据我们所知，本研究首次描述了肾移植患者感染犬幽门螺杆菌的情况。
