Nocardia exalbida, an uncommon Nocardia, was first identified in 2006. We herein report a 70-year-old man with pulmonary nocardiosis caused by N. exalbida after living-donor liver transplantation. We also review 11 previously reported cases of N. exalbida infections. To our knowledge, there are no case reports available on nocardiosis consequent to N. exalbida infection following transplantation, thus highlighting the importance of identifying bacterial species for the successful management of infection.
浅白诺卡菌是一种罕见的诺卡菌，于2006年首次被鉴定出来。我们在此报告一例70岁男性在活体供肝移植后发生由浅白诺卡菌引起的肺诺卡菌病的病例。我们还回顾了11例先前报道的浅白诺卡菌感染病例。据我们所知，尚无移植后因浅白诺卡菌感染导致诺卡菌病的病例报告，这凸显了识别细菌种类对成功治疗感染的重要性。
