We describe the presentation, diagnosis and management of a premature newborn with Actinomyces odontolyticus bacteremia; this is the first case report of neonatal sepsis secondary to this bacteria. Maternal dental infection was the likely source of the pathogen. The outcome was favorable, with good response to antimicrobial therapy with ampicillin/amoxicillin.
我们描述了一例因伴放线放线杆菌菌血症而早产的新生儿的临床表现、诊断和治疗方法；这是首例由该细菌引起的新生儿败血症的病例报告。产妇的牙齿感染可能是病原体的来源。该患儿对抗生素氨苄西林/阿莫西林治疗的反应良好，结局良好。
