重型再生障碍性贫血患者本身存在粒细胞减少,在接受免疫抑制治疗后,更易发生感染,常合并多系统并发症。蜡样芽孢杆菌(Bacillus cereus,B. cereus)分布广泛,可在健康人群定植,是典型的机会性致病菌,其感染途径多样。粒细胞缺乏是多种血液系统疾病的常见表现之一,存在粒细胞缺乏的血液系统疾病患者更容易感染B. cereus。该文报道1例重型再生障碍性贫血患者,在免疫抑制治疗后的粒细胞缺乏期,发生B. cereus菌血症同时发生多处脓肿的病例。重型再生障碍性贫血合并B. cereus菌血症伴多处脓肿的病例较为罕见。该文结合相关文献,深入分析诊疗过程,总结经验,以期提升此类患者的临床诊疗水平。

Patients with severe aplastic anemia (SAA) often present with neutropenia, and are particularly susceptible to infections, especially following immunosuppressive therapy. Bacillus cereus is a ubiquitous, opportunistic pathogen capable of colonizing healthy individuals and causing infections through various routes. Neutropenia is a common feature in many hematologic disorders, placing affected patients at higher risk for Bacillus cereus infections. This report describes a rare case of Bacillus cereus bacteremia with multiple abscesses in a patient with SAA during the neutropenic phase following immunosuppressive therapy. Given the rarity of such presentations, relevant literature was reviewed and the diagnostic and treatment process was analyzed in detail, with the aim of providing clinical insights and improving the management of similar cases.
