Abstract:
Spinal epidural abscess (SEA) can lead to a subacute onset of neurological deficits of the extremities and is commonly accompanied by spondylodiscitis if located anterior to the dura. Lactococcus garviae is a fish pathogen that is occasionally found in poultry, cattle, and swine. It is a rare cause of infection in humans. Most commonly it is associated with endocarditis. Until 2019, less than 30 cases of human Lactoccous garviae infection have been published. To the best of our knowledge, we present the second reported case of SEA with spondylodiscitis caused by Lactococcus garviae. How Lactococcus garviae caused SEA, remains unclear in this case.
摘要:
脊髓硬膜外脓肿(SEA)可导致四肢神经功能缺损的亚急性发作,如果位于硬脑膜前方,通常会伴有脊椎盘炎。链球菌是一种鱼类病原体,偶尔在家禽中发现,牛,猪。它是人类感染的罕见原因。最常见的是与心内膜炎有关。截至2019年,已发表的人类乳球菌感染病例不到30例。据我们所知,我们介绍了第二例由链球菌引起的SEA伴脊椎盘炎的报告。链球菌是如何引起SEA的,在这种情况下仍不清楚。
