Tularemia can present as an oto-rhino-laryngological disease. The clinical and radiological (CT) manifestations, diagnosis and treatment are discussed based on a case report where a patient with tonsillitis and enlarged cervical lymph nodes was admitted to the department of oto-rhino-laryngology of a hospital in Northern Norway. Francisella tularensis was isolated from the blood and there was a high titre of agglutinating serum antibodies to F. tularensis. The patient's contaminated drinking water well is the suspect source of infection.
兔热病可表现为耳鼻咽喉科疾病。基于挪威北部一家医院耳鼻咽喉科收治的一名扁桃体炎伴颈部淋巴结肿大患者的病例报告,对其临床和放射学(CT)表现、诊断及治疗进行了讨论。从血液中分离出了土拉弗朗西斯菌,且针对土拉弗朗西斯菌的凝集血清抗体滴度很高。患者受污染的饮用水井被怀疑是感染源。
