Infections with species mainly cause gastrointestinal disease and are usually self-limiting. Systemic complications such as bacteremia and osteoarticular infections are rare. Here we report a very rare case of a vertebral osteomyelitis due to , and we reviewed the literature for similar cases, identifying six other cases. Therapy should be guided on resistance testing if available due to emerging resistance rates, especially to fluoroquinolones. Azithromycin may be a treatment option for spondylodiscitis.
该物种感染主要引起胃肠道疾病,通常为自限性。菌血症和骨关节炎感染等全身并发症较为罕见。在此,我们报告一例极为罕见的由该物种引起的脊椎骨髓炎病例,并查阅文献以寻找类似病例,共识别出其他六例。鉴于耐药率不断上升,尤其是对氟喹诺酮类药物的耐药率,如有药敏试验结果,治疗应以此为指导。阿奇霉素可能是该物种所致脊椎间盘炎的一种治疗选择。
