We report 2 cases from Spain of infectious proctitis caused by Neisseria meningitidis in HIV-positive men who have sex with men. Genetic characterization of the isolates showed that they are unusual strains not found in other more frequent meningococcal locations. This finding suggests an association between specific strains and anogenital tract colonization.
我们报告了2例来自西班牙的病例,是由脑膜炎奈瑟菌引起的感染性直肠炎,患者为男男性行为的HIV阳性者。对分离株的基因特征分析表明,它们是在其他更常见的脑膜炎球菌感染部位未发现的罕见菌株。这一发现表明特定菌株与肛门生殖道定植之间存在关联。
