Granulibacter bethesdensis is a Gram-negative bacillus described as a pathogen exclusively in patients with chronic granulomatous disease, a phagocytic disorder that impairs the ability to clear catalase-producing organisms. Granulibacter usually causes chronic and recurrent lymphadenopathies. We report the fatal case of a 4-year-old boy with chronic granulomatous disease, who presented with sepsis after a few days of abdominal pain and diarrhea.
贝塞斯达颗粒杆菌是一种革兰氏阴性杆菌,据描述它仅在患有慢性肉芽肿病的患者中作为病原体出现,慢性肉芽肿病是一种吞噬功能障碍性疾病,会损害清除产过氧化氢酶生物体的能力。颗粒杆菌通常会导致慢性复发性淋巴结病。我们报告了一例4岁慢性肉芽肿病男孩的致命病例,该男孩在出现腹痛和腹泻几天后发生了败血症。
