2003年，芬兰发生了一起与其他2例由非O1、非O139型霍乱弧菌（NCV）引起的发热性感染有时间关系的致命感染。所有感染都与接触海水有关。死亡的病人在出现症状之前也吃了家里腌制的白鱼，NCV检测呈阳性。所有患者均存在损害因素，所有菌株均可通过脉冲场凝胶电泳进行区分，ctx基因阴性。这3例病例说明，尽管在芬兰不常见，但NCV可引起临床显著甚至致命的感染。(c)2006年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
A fatal infection with temporal relation to 2 other febrile infections caused by Vibrio cholerae non-O1, non-O139 (NCV) occurred in Finland in 2003. All infections were associated with contact with seawater. The patient who died had also eaten home-salted whitefish, tested positive for NCV, preceding his symptoms. All patients had compromising factors, and all strains were distinguishable by pulsed-field gel etectrophoresis and negative for the ctx gene. These 3 cases illustrate that, despite being uncommon in Finland, NCVs can cause clinically significant and even fatal infections. (c) 2006 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
