我们描述了三个人畜共患链球菌软组织感染造成的新鲜海鲜接触。一个是局部拇指感染海豚链球菌在免疫功能正常的年轻男性造成的穿刺伤口，从蟹钳。另外两例为乳房切除术患者的上行性上肢蜂窝织炎伴菌血症。其中一种感染是由S. iniae引起，另一株由停乳链球菌亚种引起。停乳，一种以前没有被描述为人畜共患感染原因的物种。因此，在清洗生海鲜时，应使用防护设备，以尽量减少经皮损伤的风险。
We describe three zoonotic streptococcal soft tissue infections resulting from fresh seafood contact. One was a localized thumb infection with Streptococcus iniae in an immunocompetent healthy young male resulting from a puncture wound from a crab pincer. The other two were cases of ascending upper limb cellulitis associated with bacteraemia in mastectomy patients. One of these infections was caused by S. iniae while the other was caused by Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. dysgalactiae, a species that has not been previously described as a cause of zoonotic infection. Hence when cleaning raw seafood, protective equipment should be used to minimize the risk of percutaneous injuries.
