李司忒氏菌病在世界各地均有报道,1963年以前文献报告已有700余例,近十余年来报告尤多。仅美国在1967～1969年有255例,1969～1971年有217例。由于致病菌分离鉴定困难和对其认识不足,实际发病者远非此数。本文根据近期文献,作一概述,以引起重视。 Listeriosis has been reported all over the world. Before the report of 1963, more than 700 cases had been reported, especially in the past ten years or so. In the United States alone, there were 255 cases from 1967 to 1969 and 217 cases from 1969 to 1971. Due to the difficulty of isolating and identifying pathogenic bacteria and its lack of understanding, the actual incidence is far from this number. This article based on recent literature, make an overview, to attract attention.
