We report a case of vertebral osteomyelitis caused by Pseudomonas cepacia in a patient with a history of intravenous-drug abuse. P. cepacia infections are usually nosocomial, although community-acquired infections occur more commonly in intravenous-drug abusers than in the general population. Vertebral osteomyelitis caused by P. cepacia has not previously been reported.
我们报告了一例由洋葱伯克霍尔德菌引起的脊椎骨髓炎病例,患者有静脉药物滥用史。洋葱伯克霍尔德菌感染通常发生在医院内,尽管社区获得性感染在静脉药物滥用者中比在普通人群中更常见。此前尚未有关于洋葱伯克霍尔德菌引起脊椎骨髓炎的报道。
