A chronically constipated, mentally retarded male adolescent was admitted on two occasions with gastroenteritis symptoms and stool positive for group G Streptococcus. The first episode was also associated with group G streptococcal bacteremia. This case of group G streptococcal disease is unique in that the primary symptoms were those of gastroenteritis. In the context of chronic constipation in colonic distention, the case appears to support the hypothesis of Watsky et al that group G streptococcal bacteremia is promoted by processes which breach anatomic mucosal or epithelial infection barriers.
一名患有慢性便秘的智障男性青少年因出现肠胃炎症状且粪便中 G 组链球菌呈阳性而两次入院。第一次发作还伴有 G 组链球菌菌血症。该例 G 组链球菌疾病的独特之处在于其主要症状为肠胃炎。在慢性便秘合并结肠扩张的背景下，该病例似乎支持了 Watsky 等人的假说，即 G 组链球菌菌血症是由破坏解剖学黏膜或上皮感染屏障的过程所促成的。
