is an aerobic, gram negative, rod-shaped, bacterium typically found in the soil. Commonly a plant pathogen, it is also a rare human pathogen causing serious disease. Risk factors for infection include neutropenia, leukopenia, catheters, hospitalization, and low CD4+ lymphocyte count, especially in patients with malignancy or human immunodeficiency virus. There is currently limited literature to establish a definitive guideline for antimicrobial therapy and obtaining susceptibilities from a specialized laboratory is appropriate. We present a successfully treated case of bioprosthetic mitral valve endocarditis in a patient with previous endocarditis.
是一种需氧的革兰氏阴性杆菌,呈杆状,通常存在于土壤中。它通常是一种植物病原体,也是一种罕见的可导致严重疾病的人类病原体。感染的危险因素包括中性粒细胞减少、白细胞减少、导管、住院治疗以及低CD4 +淋巴细胞计数,尤其是在患有恶性肿瘤或人类免疫缺陷病毒的患者中。目前关于制定抗菌治疗明确指南的文献有限,从专业实验室获取药敏结果是合适的。我们报告了一例曾患心内膜炎的患者成功治疗生物人工二尖瓣心内膜炎的病例。
