Abstract

Reports on human actinomycosis documented by culture have been infrequent, particularly from India. The present paper reports 12 cases of actinomycosis confirmed by culture. These include two unusual cases of actinomycosis of the brain with no granules in the pus, two pulmonary cases, one renal, one abdominal, and six cervico-facial. The lethal outcome with organ involvement, and the chronicity in some cases, warrant early etiologic confirmation and prompt treatment.

摘要

通过培养记录的人类放线菌病报告很少见，尤其是来自印度的报告。本文报告了12例经培养确诊的放线菌病病例。其中包括两例不寻常的脑放线菌病病例，脓液中无颗粒，两例肺部病例，一例肾脏病例，一例腹部病例和六例颈面部病例。器官受累导致的致命后果以及某些病例的慢性病程，需要早期进行病因确诊并及时治疗。
