Osteoradionecrosis is the most common cause of mandibular osteomyelitis. Here we are reporting a case of osteomyelitis of the mandible caused by Leuconostoc mesenteroides spp cremoris. The frequency of Leuconostoc infections are under reported mainly due to its difficult identification. Non pathogenic organism like leuconostoc can cause infection in the immunocompromised and should warrant proper microbial identification and adequate targeted treatment to manage the patients.
放射性骨坏死是下颌骨骨髓炎最常见的病因。在此，我们报告一例由肠系膜明串珠菌乳脂亚种引起的下颌骨骨髓炎病例。明串珠菌感染的发生率报道不足，主要是因为其难以鉴定。像明串珠菌这样的非致病微生物可在免疫功能低下者中引起感染，因此应对患者进行适当的微生物鉴定和充分的针对性治疗。
