Gallibacterium anatis (G. anatis) is an opportunistic pathogen previously associated with deaths in poultry and is also a pathogen that rarely causes human diseases. G. anatis has only been reported twice as the causative agent of a human disease (both in France). Here, we report a 62-year-old male patient with hypertension and type 2 diabetes who suffered from acute watery diarrhea caused by this bacterium which was identified by MALDI-TOF MS and 16 S rRNA sequencing. Despite human diarrhea caused by G.anatis is rare, with the continuous emergence of multidrug-resistant isolates of G. anatis in recent years, this case report will inform clinicians that G. anatis especially drug-resistant G. anatis may be a possible infectious source of human diarrhea in immune-suppressed populations.
鸡加利福尼亚沙门氏菌（G. anatis）是一种机会致病菌，以前与家禽死亡有关，也是一种很少引起人类疾病的病原体。G. anatis 仅被报道过两次作为人类疾病的病原体（均在法国）。在这里，我们报告了一例 62 岁男性高血压和 2 型糖尿病患者，因 MALDI-TOF MS 和 16S rRNA 测序鉴定的这种细菌引起的急性水样腹泻。尽管人类腹泻由 G.anatis 引起的情况很少见，但近年来 G. anatis 的多药耐药分离株不断出现，本病例报告将告知临床医生，G. anatis 特别是耐药性 G. anatis 可能是免疫抑制人群人类腹泻的潜在感染源。
