Ten cases of campylobacter bacteraemia, which were diagnosed over a three-year period, are described. Four patients presented with acute gastrointestinal illness, three patients had acute febrile illnesses, two patients had cellulitis and one patient presented with ureteric colic. Two patients had lifelong agammaglobulinaemia, two were undergoing corticosteroid therapy and there was one nosocomial infection. In contrast with previous reports, the most common species that was isolated was Campylobacter jejuni, which was found in eight cases, and this includes the first report of cellulitis that was most probably caused by C. jejuni. All of these isolations of campylobacter have occurred since the introduction of the radiometric technique of processing blood cultures.
本文描述了在三年期间诊断出的10例弯曲杆菌菌血症病例。4例患者表现为急性胃肠道疾病，3例患者患有急性发热性疾病，2例患者患有蜂窝织炎，1例患者表现为输尿管绞痛。2例患者患有终身性无丙种球蛋白血症，2例正在接受皮质类固醇治疗，还有1例为医院感染。与先前的报告不同，分离出的最常见菌种是空肠弯曲菌，共8例，其中包括首例很可能由空肠弯曲菌引起的蜂窝织炎报告。所有这些弯曲杆菌分离病例均发生在采用血液培养放射性测量技术之后。
