贪吃皮肤杆菌致表皮样囊肿1例

Epidermoid cyst caused by Cutibacterium avidum: a case report

摘要:

贪吃皮肤杆菌(C. avidum)是一种属于皮肤棒状杆菌属的革兰阳性菌,主要存在于人体皮肤表面且较少引起皮肤浅层或深层的侵入性感染。目前C. avidum所致疾病在诊断、治疗及预后等方面尚未形成统一的专家共识,本文报告1例由C. avidum引起表皮样囊肿经神经外科行浅表肿物切除术及抗菌药物治疗后好转出院的病例,旨在增强临床对C. avidum感染的识别能力,为临床此类疾病的诊治提供参考。

Abstract:

Cutibacterium avidum (C. avidum) is a Gram-positive bacterium belonging to Corynebacterium cutis, which mainly exists on the surface of human skin and rarely causes invasive infection of superficial or deep skin. At present, there is no unified expert consensus on the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of C. avidum. This paper reports a patient with epidermoid cyst caused by C. avidum who recovered and was discharged after neurosurgical resection of superficial mass and antimicrobial treatment, aiming to enhance the clinical recognition on C. avidum infection and provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
