We report 2 infants hospitalized with Cronobacter sakazakii meningitis. Each infant had exposure to powdered infant formula at home. Both infants survived, but 1 infant had a subdural empyema drained and developed left sensorineural hearing loss. Early advanced brain imaging is recommended in infants with C. sakazakii meningitis. Reporting to state and federal public health officials may help identify outbreaks.
我们报告了 2 例因 Cronobacter sakazakii 脑膜炎住院的婴儿。每个婴儿在家中都有接触过配方奶粉。两名婴儿均存活,但 1 名婴儿需要引流硬膜下积脓,并出现左侧感觉神经性听力损失。建议对 Cronobacter sakazakii 脑膜炎婴儿进行早期高级脑部影像学检查。向州和联邦公共卫生官员报告可能有助于识别暴发。
