脱羧菌是一种罕见的人类病原体，最常见的影响免疫功能低下的个人。在报告的免疫功能正常的患者感染该微生物的病例中，仅在多种微生物感染的情况下观察到。我们在这里报告的情况下，脓肿的免疫功能正常的病人，生长出L。脱羧菌作为纯培养物。有限的文献可对这种生物进行审查，并讨论了这一发现的潜在影响。
Leclercia adecarboxylata is a rarely reported human pathogen, most commonly affecting immunocompromised individuals. In reported cases of immunocompetent patients infected with this organism, it is seen exclusively in the context of polymicrobial infections. We report here the case of an abscess in an immunocompetent patient that grew out L. adecarboxylata as a pure culture. The limited literature available on this organism is reviewed, and the potential implication of this finding is discussed.
