背景坂崎肠杆菌是一种罕见但重要的原因，危及生命的新生儿败血症和脑膜炎并发症的发展，脑水肿。考虑到这种生物体的嗜神经性，早期诊断和治疗是至关重要的，因为脑脓肿形成后预后不良。横断面影像学（CT和MRI）在诊断中起重要作用。一例经活检证实的E.坂崎脑脓肿，这是诊断的MR图像，提出了，并及时放射成像的中枢神经系统的重要性，在这种危及生命的疾病的患者的工作进行了讨论。
Background. Enterobacter sakazakii is a rare but important cause of life-threatening neonatal sepsis and meningitis complicated by the development of brain abscess.Objective. Given the neurotropic qualities of this organism, early diagnosis and treatment are crucial as a poor prognosis follows brain abscess formation.Materials and methods. Cross-sectional imaging (CT and MRI) play an important role in the diagnostic work-up.Conclusion. A biopsy-proven case of E. sakazakii brain abscess, which was diagnosed on MR images, is presented, and the importance of prompt radiologic imaging of the central nervous system in the workup of patients with this life-threatening disease is discussed.
