Sneathia amnii is a conditional pathogen of the female genital tract that is involved in bacterial vaginosis and poor reproductive and perinatal outcomes. Few studies have reported subcutaneous cysts following invasive infection caused by S amnii.
Here we report the case of a 27-year-old woman who presented with Bartholin's gland cyst due to S amnii infection, and was successfully treated with surgical neostomy and antibiotic agents. The isolate was gram-negative, bacillary, anaerobic, and was identified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of the 16 S rRNA.
S amni is an important but underappreciated pathogen that needs further investigation. This report describes the microbial and pathogenic characteristics of S amnii and is expected to provide a valuable reference in obstetric and gynecologic clinical practice.
桑内提亚菌是女性生殖道的条件致病菌，与细菌性阴道病及不良生殖和围产期结局相关。由桑内提亚菌引起的侵袭性感染后，很少有研究报道会出现皮下囊肿。
本案例报道了一例 27 岁的女性患者，因桑内提亚菌感染出现巴氏腺囊肿，通过手术造口术和抗生素治疗获得成功。该分离株为革兰氏阴性、杆菌状、厌氧，通过聚合酶链反应（PCR）扩增 16S rRNA 进行鉴定。
桑内提亚菌是一种重要但被低估的病原体，需要进一步研究。本报告描述了桑内提亚菌的微生物和发病特点，有望为妇产科临床实践提供有价值的参考。
