Melioidosis, an infectious disease with high mortality, caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei, is endemic in southeast Asia and northern Australia. In Indonesia, autochthonous cases have been rarely reported, with most cases being sporadic and occurring in travelers. Herein, we report a fatal case of neurological melioidosis in a traveler from Indonesia presenting with septic shock.
类鼻疽是一种由伯克霍尔德菌引起的、死亡率很高的传染病，在东南亚和澳大利亚北部流行。在印度尼西亚，本土病例鲜有报道，大多数病例为散发性，且发生在旅行者身上。在此，我们报告一例来自印度尼西亚的旅行者发生神经型类鼻疽并伴有感染性休克的致命病例。
