Human infections with Fusobacterium necrophorum.
Fusobacterium necrophorum is a Gram-negative anaerobic bacillus that can be a primary pathogen causing either localised abscesses and throat infections or systemic life-threatening disease. Systemic infections due to F. necrophorum are referred to as either Lemierre's disease/syndrome, post-anginal sepsis or necrobacillosis, but in the context of this mini-review, all are included under the umb...
متن کاملUterine Necrosis Associated with Fusobacterium necrophorum Infection
Fusobacterium necrophorum is infrequently implicated as a pathogenic organism. When pathogenic, the typical clinical presentation is that of pharyngitis, cervical adenopathy, and unilateral thrombophlebitis of the internal jugular vein. Infections caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum within the fields of obstetrics and gynecology have been infrequently reported. We describe a 19-year-old woman w...
متن کاملDisseminated intravascular coagulation in Fusobacterium necrophorum septicemia.
A previously healthy 42-year-old man developed, after a neglected tonsillitis, a severe Fusobacterium necrophorum septicemia with disseminated intravascular coagulation. Peripheral, painful, cyanotic and gangrenous lesions appeared on toes, external ears and nose tip. The patient survived. Consumption coagulopathy associated with tonsillitis should suggest F. necrophorum infection. Growth of th...
متن کاملEffect of Fusobacterium necrophorum leukotoxoid vaccine on susceptibility to experimentally induced liver abscesses in cattle.
The efficacy and the optimum dose of Fusobacterium necrophorum crude leukotoxoid vaccine required to immunize and protect steers against experimentally induced liver abscesses were evaluated. The vaccine consisted of cell-free culture supernatant of a high leukotoxin-producing strain of F. necrophorum, inactivated with formalin and homogenized with an adjuvant. Twenty-five steers were assigned ...
متن کاملFusobacterium necrophorum Pharyngitis Complicated by Lemierre's Syndrome
We report the case of an 18-year-old woman who was referred to our outpatient clinic because of a 2-week history of sore throat, high fever, and neck tenderness unresponsive to a 7-day amoxicillin/clavulanic acid course. Infectious mononucleosis was initially suspected, but an extremely high value of procalcitonin and clinical deterioration suggested a bacterial sepsis, prompting the patient ad...
