In a 50-year-old cook, partial motor seizures and signs of dominant hemisphere dysfunction developed after a brief nonspecific febrile illness. Pleocytosis was seen in the cerebrospinal fluid and findings on cerebral angiography and isotope brain scan suggested a subdural collection. Surgical exploration showed only thickening and inflammation of the dura. Cultures of this tissue and of the patient's blood were positive for Vibrio fetus, an organism common in sheep and cattle, but seen rarely in humans. Among the few reported cases of human infection, several have involved the brain and meninges.
一名50岁的厨师在经历短暂的非特异性发热性疾病后出现部分运动性癫痫发作及优势半球功能障碍的体征。脑脊液中可见细胞数增多,脑血管造影和同位素脑扫描结果提示硬膜下积液。手术探查仅发现硬脑膜增厚和炎症。该组织及患者血液培养结果显示胎儿弧菌呈阳性,这种细菌在绵羊和牛中常见,但在人类中很少见。在少数已报道的人类感染病例中,有几例累及脑和脑膜。
