A 39-year-old man with no prior history of underlying arthritis developed osteomyelitis and septic arthritis in his hand following a cat bite. This case illustrates the virulence of Pasteurella multocida infections associated with animal bites, particularly those of cats, whose teeth can inoculate bone directly. The onset of cellulitis caused by P. multocida infections is often rapid, and the drug of choice for such infections remains penicillin. Appropriate antibiotic therapy, however, does not always prevent complications such as those seen in this patient.
一名39岁无潜在关节炎病史的男性在被猫咬伤后手部发生骨髓炎和脓毒性关节炎。该病例说明了多杀巴斯德菌感染与动物咬伤相关的毒力,尤其是猫咬伤,猫的牙齿可直接将细菌接种到骨内。多杀巴斯德菌感染引起的蜂窝织炎起病通常迅速,此类感染的首选药物仍是青霉素。然而,适当的抗生素治疗并不总能预防该患者所出现的并发症。
