Aeromonas hydrophila is a gram-negative organism generally considered a pathogen of low virulence, rarely reported as causing infection in man. Recently it has been recognized as causing infection in wounds. This article reports the case of a patient who suffered a puncture wound while standing in a fresh water lake. He subsequently developed a rapidly progressing cellulitis requiring hospitalization. This organism was cultured from the wound and responded dramatically to appropriate antimicrobial therapy.
嗜水气单胞菌是一种革兰氏阴性菌，通常被认为是低毒力病原体，很少有报道称其会引起人类感染。最近，它被认为可导致伤口感染。本文报告了一名患者的病例，该患者站在淡水湖中时被刺伤。随后，他患上了迅速进展的蜂窝织炎，需要住院治疗。从伤口培养出了这种细菌，且对适当的抗菌治疗反应显著。
