Lemierre's syndrome is an uncommon clinical entity. It consists of oropharyngeal infection and anaerobic bacteremia, followed by jugular vein septic thrombophlebitis with embolization to lungs and other areas. Although it occurs less frequently than in the pre-antibiotic era, it is important that the typical presentation be recognized because of its lethal potential. A case of Lemierre's syndrome in Louisville, Kentucky, is described.
勒米尔综合征是一种罕见的临床病症。它由口咽感染和厌氧菌血症组成，随后出现颈静脉脓毒性血栓性静脉炎，并伴有肺部及其他部位的栓塞。尽管其发病率比抗生素使用前的时代有所降低，但鉴于其潜在的致死性，认识到其典型表现很重要。本文描述了肯塔基州路易斯维尔市的一例勒米尔综合征病例。
