Abstract

Abstract Burkholderia cepacia complex consists of 24 species of microorganisms that include B. cepacia, B. multivorans, B. cenocepacia, B. vietnamiensis, B. ambifaria, and many more. It is a ubiquitous microorganism found in the soil and aquatic milieu. The probability of infections in immunocompetent individuals is rare, but an increase in the population of immunocompromised patients in the past decade has attributed to increasing incidence of infections caused by these microorganisms. The most common infections caused by these isolates include bacteremia, pneumonia, genital tract infections, and surgical wound infections. Their potential to cause nosocomial outbreaks in wards of immunocompromised patients is well known. In this case series, we describe three cases of community-acquired Burkholderia vietnamiensis bacteremia in patients suffering from B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia and their antibiotic sensitivity pattern to guide the treatment of these individuals.
越南伯克霍尔德菌引起的b细胞急性淋巴细胞白血病患者菌血症:一个病例系列和文献综述
洋葱伯克霍尔德菌复合体由24种微生物组成,包括洋葱伯克霍尔德菌、多角伯克霍尔德菌、新洋葱伯克霍尔德菌、越南伯克霍尔德菌、两性伯克霍尔德菌等。它是一种普遍存在于土壤和水生环境中的微生物。在免疫正常的个体中感染的可能性是罕见的,但在过去的十年中,免疫功能低下的患者群体的增加归因于这些微生物引起的感染发生率的增加。由这些分离株引起的最常见感染包括菌血症、肺炎、生殖道感染和手术伤口感染。众所周知,它们有可能在免疫功能低下的病人病房中引起医院暴发。在这个病例系列中,我们描述了3例社区获得性越南伯克霍尔德菌血症患者患有b细胞急性淋巴细胞白血病和他们的抗生素敏感性模式,以指导这些个体的治疗。
