Abstract
Bacillus cereus may cause infective problems in compromised patients. No previous record of infective endocarditis due to this organism could be found. A 51-year-old White woman with B. cereus endocarditis after prosthetic mitral valve replacement is described. The problems of interpreting the significance of B. cereus bacteraemia, delayed diagnosis, and the inherent resistance of the organism are discussed.
摘要
蜡样芽孢杆菌可能会在免疫功能低下的患者中引发感染问题。此前未发现有该病菌导致感染性心内膜炎的记录。本文描述了一名51岁的白人女性，在人工二尖瓣置换术后发生了蜡样芽孢杆菌感染性心内膜炎。文中还讨论了对蜡样芽孢杆菌菌血症意义的解读问题、诊断延误以及该病菌的固有耐药性。
