A 26-year-old man with acute leukemia, treated with chemotherapy, developed emphysematous septic arthritis, due to Streptococcus milleri, affecting the right knee and both shoulders. A review of the literature revealed that intraarticular gas formation is a rarely reported complication of septic arthritis. This could be the 2nd reported case of emphysematous septic arthritis due to S. milleri.
一名26岁的急性白血病男性患者在接受化疗后，因米勒链球菌感染出现气肿性化脓性关节炎，累及右膝和双肩。文献回顾显示，关节内气体形成是化脓性关节炎一种鲜有报道的并发症。这可能是第二例由米勒链球菌引起的气肿性化脓性关节炎病例。
