Abstract:
We report a rare case of latent melioidosis activation in a patient with a distant travel history to an endemic region. Melioidosis is an infection caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei which is highly endemic in Southeast Asia and northern Australia. The patient exhibited common clinical risk factors, presenting with urinary tract infection and bacteremia. The treatment course was complicated by the adverse effect of trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole. This case underscores the importance of early detection and appropriate treatment of melioidosis, particularly given its expanding global distribution.
摘要:
我们报告了一例罕见的潜伏性类骨病激活病例,该患者有远途旅行史。类lioidosis是由假伯克霍尔德氏菌引起的感染,在东南亚和澳大利亚北部高度流行。患者表现出常见的临床危险因素,表现为尿路感染和菌血症。治疗过程并发甲氧苄啶/磺胺甲恶唑的不良反应。该病例强调了早期发现和适当治疗类结节病的重要性,特别是考虑到其不断扩大的全球分布。
