Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Good's syndrome (GS) is characterized by immunodeficiency, and patients diagnosed with GS are susceptible to infection or even bacteremia, which is the most evident complication. Campylobacter coli (C. coli) rarely causes bacteremia or extraintestinal infection. We report herein a case with GS in which right leg cellulitis associated with C. coli bacteremia occurred three times over one and a half years.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 41-year-old Chinese male with GS was diagnosed with C. coli infection. He presented with swelling and redness of right lower leg and developed bacteremia due to C. coli repeatedly. Bacteremia was confirmed by bacteriological examination. Adding long-term oral antibiotic treatment with amoxicillin/clavulanate potassium and gentamicin following intravenous meropenem and amikacin was very effective. The blood cultures became negative and the patient has been free from any symptoms encountered for more than one year without relapse of bacteremia.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with GS and their physicians should carefully consider the antibacterial treatment options against C. coli bacteremia. Combined anti-infective therapy involving aminoglycoside is preferred in the treatment of C. coli bacteremia in GS patients.
