Abstract:
Lemierre\'s syndrome (LS) is a rare disease entity, which can be catastrophic if organism-directed treatment is not initiated early. Lemierre\'s syndrome is frequently caused by Fusobacterium infection which is frequently susceptible to clindamycin. Evidence suggests there is an increase in the incidence of cases of drug resistant Fusobacterium species. Through this case we present a unique case of a 45-year-old Caucasian female with Lemierre\'s Syndrome due to polymicrobial organisms that were resistant to clindamycin thus developing recurrent infections despite being on antibiotics.
摘要:
Lemierre综合征(LS)是一种罕见的疾病实体,这可能是灾难性的,如果生物体为导向的治疗不及早开始。Lemierre综合征通常是由梭菌感染引起的,梭菌感染通常对克林霉素敏感。有证据表明,耐药梭杆菌属的发病率有所增加。通过这个案例,我们提出了一个独特的案例,即一名45岁的白人女性患有Lemierre综合征,这是由于对克林霉素具有抗性的多微生物生物,因此尽管使用抗生素,但仍发生复发性感染。
