Samples of 109 breast masses were cultured aerobically and anaerobically for Mobiluncus spp. using selective and non-selective media. Two of the 103 evaluable samples were sterile and 57 (55%) yielded facultative bacteria only. The remaining 44 (43%) contained anaerobic growth alone or mixed infections. Seven (16%) of the 44 samples with anaerobes, six from women and one from a man, yielded Mobiluncus spp. Six were identified as Mobiluncus curtisii and one as Mobiluncus mulieris. There were two types of breast abscesses: one with Staphylococcus aureus predominating and one with anaerobes predominating. Most of the anaerobes belonged to the normal vaginal flora, but some were members of the normal oral flora. These results support the hypothesis that breast infections with these anaerobes result from sexual activities.
对109个乳腺肿块样本进行需氧和厌氧培养,以检测动弯杆菌属,使用选择性和非选择性培养基。103个可评估样本中有2个无菌,57个(55%)仅培养出兼性细菌。其余44个(43%)仅含有厌氧菌生长或混合感染。44个含有厌氧菌的样本中有7个(16%)培养出动弯杆菌属,其中6个来自女性,1个来自男性。6个被鉴定为柯氏动弯杆菌,1个为女性动弯杆菌。乳腺脓肿有两种类型:一种以金黄色葡萄球菌为主,另一种以厌氧菌为主。大多数厌氧菌属于正常阴道菌群,但有些是正常口腔菌群的成员。这些结果支持了这样一种假说,即这些厌氧菌引起的乳腺感染是由性活动导致的。
