摘要

粪芽孢杆菌是一种革兰氏阴性杆菌，在世界范围内很少被分离出来。由这种微生物引起的第一例感染，如肺炎、软组织感染、尿路感染、菌血症和脑膜炎，可追溯到40多年前，几乎全部发生在新生儿和免疫抑制的宿主身上。最佳的抗生素治疗粪芽孢杆菌还没有很好地建立在文献。我们报告一个病例的免疫能力的病人在哥伦比亚谁脑膜炎由于粪芽孢杆菌牙科手术后。重要的是要了解这种微生物，现在可能被认为是一个潜在的新兴病原体在免疫能力的成年人。

A Rare Case of Meningitis Caused by Alcaligenes faecalis in an Immunocompetent Patient.

Alcaligenes faecalis (A. faecalis) is a Gram-negative rod rarely isolated as an infective bacterium worldwide. The first cases of infections caused by this microorganism, such as pneumonia, soft tissue infections, urinary tract infections, bacteremia, and meningitis, date back more than 40 years and are almost entirely in newborns and immunosuppressed hosts. Optimal antibiotic therapy for A. faecalis has not been well established in the literature. We report a case of an immunocompetent patient in Colombia who had meningitis due to A. faecalis after a dental procedure. It is important to know about this microorganism that nowadays could be considered a potentially emerging pathogen in immunocompetent adults.
