Campylobacter rectus is a member of the human oral flora and is associated with periodontal disease. We report the first case of severe acute otitis media (AOM) due to C. rectus in a previous healthy 15-year-old boy, which was confirmed by 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing. C. rectus is a possible causative pathogen of AOM.
直肠弯曲杆菌是人类口腔菌群的一员,与牙周病有关。我们报告了首例由直肠弯曲杆菌引起的严重急性中耳炎(AOM)病例,患者为一名此前健康的15岁男孩,通过16S核糖体RNA基因测序得以确诊。直肠弯曲杆菌可能是急性中耳炎的致病病原体。
