A 64-year-old white man presented with Neisseria meningitidis primary septic arthritis. Further evaluation revealed multiple myeloma. Increased susceptibility to infection occurs early in multiple myeloma; thus, a rare cause of primary septic arthritis, such as N. meningitidis, warrants a full evaluation for immunocompromise.
一名64岁白人男性因脑膜炎奈瑟菌原发性化脓性关节炎就诊。进一步检查发现患有多发性骨髓瘤。多发性骨髓瘤患者早期即出现感染易感性增加;因此,对于原发性化脓性关节炎的罕见病因,如脑膜炎奈瑟菌,有必要对免疫功能低下进行全面评估。
