Amputasyon güdüğünde Citrobacter freundii’ye bağlı postoperatif osteomyelit gelişen olgu

Gram negatif basillere bağlı olarak osteomyelit gelişimi nadiren bildirilmektedir; özellikle orak hücreli anemi, intravenöz ilaç bağımlılığı gibi altta yatan hastalığı olan olgularda görülmektedir. Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacteriaceae ailesinde yer alan Gram negatif bir basil olup, üriner sistem infeksiyonu, pnömoni, bakteriyemi, sepsis, intraabdominal enfeksiyonları ve santral sinir sistemi enfeksiyonlarına neden olabilmektedir; nadiren osteomyelite neden olabilir. Bu yazıda, silahlı yaralanma sonrası ampütasyon uygulanan, amputasyon bölgesinde C. freundii’ye bağlı olarak postoperatif osteomyelit gelişen, 38 yaşında bir erkek hasta sunulmuştur.
