() is a Gram-negative rod rarely isolated as an infective bacterium worldwide. The first cases of infections caused by this microorganism, such as pneumonia, soft tissue infections, urinary tract infections, bacteremia, and meningitis, date back more than 40 years and are almost entirely in newborns and immunosuppressed hosts. Optimal antibiotic therapy for has not been well established in the literature. We report a case of an immunocompetent patient in Colombia who had meningitis due to after a dental procedure. It is important to know about this microorganism that nowadays could be considered a potentially emerging pathogen in immunocompetent adults.
()是一种革兰氏阴性杆菌,在全球范围内很少作为感染性细菌被分离出来。由这种微生物引起的首批感染病例,如肺炎、软组织感染、尿路感染、菌血症和脑膜炎,可追溯到40多年前,且几乎全部发生在新生儿和免疫抑制宿主中。关于()的最佳抗生素治疗方法在文献中尚未得到充分确立。我们报告了一例哥伦比亚免疫功能正常的患者,在牙科手术后因()感染而患脑膜炎。了解这种如今可被视为免疫功能正常成年人中潜在新兴病原体的微生物很重要。
