We report a case of catheter-related bloodstream infection by Tsukamurella inchonensis, identified using 16S rRNA gene sequencing, in a patient with myelofibrosis who underwent a bone marrow transplant. Tsukamurella species infections are rare. To our knowledge, this is the first case of T. inchonensis bloodstream infection in an immunocompromised patient.
我们报告了一例由仁川冢村菌引起的导管相关血流感染病例,该病例通过16S rRNA基因测序得以确诊,患者为一名接受骨髓移植的骨髓纤维化患者。冢村菌属感染较为罕见。据我们所知,这是免疫功能低下患者中首例仁川冢村菌血流感染病例。
