BACKGROUND
In June 2015, a 45-year-old man suffering from acute necrotic tonsillitis and throat phlegmon was hospitalized in Nuremberg, Germany. After emergency surgery the patient was initially treated with antibiotics.
RESULTS
A throat swab grew a toxigenic Corynebacterium diphtheriae biovar mitis strain. The patient's vaccination status was not documented and the patient was tested serologically for anti-diphtheria antibodies showing no protective immunity. Extensive control investigations were performed by the local health department showing no likely source of his infection.
CONCLUSION
No secondary cases were found and the patient completely recovered.
背景
2015 年 6 月，一名 45 岁男性因急性坏死性扁桃体炎和咽后脓肿在德国纽伦堡住院。在紧急手术后，患者最初接受了抗生素治疗。
结果
咽拭子培养出一株产毒的白喉棒状杆菌温和生物型菌株。患者的疫苗接种情况未记录，对患者进行抗白喉抗体的血清学检测显示无保护性免疫。当地卫生部门进行了广泛的控制调查，未发现其感染的可能来源。
结论
未发现继发病例，患者完全康复。
