Although Neisseria species other than N gonorrhoeae and N meningitidis normally comprise part of the commensal bacterial flora of the oropharynx, they may occasionally act as opportunistic pathogens. Infections in which these organisms have been implicated include cases of endocarditis, meningitis, septicaemia, otitis, bronchopneumonia and possibly genital tract disease. In this paper, the clinical and pathological features of such infections are described, together with a discussion of factors that may contribute to their development.
尽管除淋病奈瑟菌和脑膜炎奈瑟菌之外的其他奈瑟菌属细菌通常是口咽部共生菌群的一部分,但它们偶尔也可能作为机会性病原体起作用。与这些细菌有关的感染包括心内膜炎、脑膜炎、败血症、中耳炎、支气管肺炎,以及可能的生殖道疾病。本文描述了此类感染的临床和病理特征,并讨论了可能促成其发生发展的因素。
