摘要
本文报告了一名男性艾滋病病毒感染者,患者出现隐球菌脑膜炎、肺炎和血流感染,并伴有肠梗阻和消化道出血。脑脊液和血流分析显示存在新型隐球菌复合体。对分离出的菌株进行了测序,发现它属于新型隐球菌变种 grubii,具有新的序列类型(ST)。该菌株在短时间内导致了致命的多系统隐球菌病,尽管进行了紧急抢救,但患者仍因消化道出血导致失血性休克而死亡。关于新的 ST 分离株在 HIV 感染者中引起隐球菌病的报道很少。我们报告了一种新的新生隐球菌 ST(ST702)分离株导致一名 HIV 感染者感染的病例,值得进一步研究和临床关注。
A Case of Cryptococcosis Due to a New Cryptococcus Neoformans Sequence Type in a Patient with Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection.
In this article, we report a male patient infected with HIV presenting with cryptococcal meningitis, pneumonia, and bloodstream infection, along with intestinal obstruction and gastrointestinal bleeding. Cerebrospinal fluid and bloodstream analyses revealed the presence of Cryptococcus neoformans complex. The isolated strain was sequenced and was found to belong to Cryptococcus neoformans var. grubii with a new sequence type (ST). The strain led to fatal multisystemic cryptococcosis in a short time, and the patient died due to hemorrhagic shock because of gastrointestinal bleeding despite emergency rescue efforts. There are few reports about cryptococcosis in HIV-infected patients caused by new ST isolates. We report a new Cryptococcus neoformans ST (ST702) isolate causing infection in an HIV-infected patient, which merits further study and clinical attention.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, established in 1921, is published monthly by the American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene. It is among the top-ranked tropical medicine journals in the world publishing original scientific articles and the latest science covering new research with an emphasis on population, clinical and laboratory science and the application of technology in the fields of tropical medicine, parasitology, immunology, infectious diseases, epidemiology, basic and molecular biology, virology and international medicine.
The Journal publishes unsolicited peer-reviewed manuscripts, review articles, short reports, images in Clinical Tropical Medicine, case studies, reports on the efficacy of new drugs and methods of treatment, prevention and control methodologies,new testing methods and equipment, book reports and Letters to the Editor. Topics range from applied epidemiology in such relevant areas as AIDS to the molecular biology of vaccine development.
The Journal is of interest to epidemiologists, parasitologists, virologists, clinicians, entomologists and public health officials who are concerned with health issues of the tropics, developing nations and emerging infectious diseases. Major granting institutions including philanthropic and governmental institutions active in the public health field, and medical and scientific libraries throughout the world purchase the Journal.
Two or more supplements to the Journal on topics of special interest are published annually. These supplements represent comprehensive and multidisciplinary discussions of issues of concern to tropical disease specialists and health issues of developing countries
