Four cases of cerebral Serratia infection in preterm infants were diagnosed with the aid of real-time sector sonography. Three cases had brain abscesses and one case had ventriculitis. In two cases brain abscesses had ruptured into the ventricles. Serratia brain abscess was common in our series of brain abscesses. Sonographic patterns of cerebritis, abscess formation, and ventriculitis correlated well with computed tomographic scans. Bedside cerebral sonography proved to be useful for the diagnosis, location, and follow-up of intracranial Serratia infection.
借助实时扇形超声诊断出4例早产儿脑沙雷菌感染。3例有脑脓肿，1例有脑室炎。2例脑脓肿破入脑室。在我们的脑脓肿系列中，沙雷菌脑脓肿很常见。脑脊髓炎、脓肿形成和脑室炎的超声图像与计算机断层扫描结果相关性良好。床边脑超声检查被证明对颅内沙雷菌感染的诊断、定位及随访有用。
