#Campylobacter #Maladies-infectieuses-et-tropicales
The clinical manifestations of infections caused by all of the Campylo- bacter spp. that cause enteric illnesses appear identical; C. jejuni infection may be regarded as the prototype

#Campylobacter #Maladies-infectieuses-et-tropicales
Acute enteritis is the most common presentation of C. jejuni infection. Symptoms may last from 1 day to 1 week or longer. Often, there is a prodrome with fever, headache, myalgia, and malaise 12 to 24 hours before the onset of intestinal symptoms. 143 In some patients, the constitutional symptoms may coincide with the intestinal phase or, less often, may follow it. The most common symptoms are diarrhea, malaise, fever, and abdominal pain. 143–14

Diarrhea may range in severity from loose stools to massive watery or grossly bloody stools. In any patient, the entire spectrum of diarrhea may be seen. For most patients, there are 10 or more bowel movements on the worst day of the illness

Cam- pylobacter enteritis is frequently self-limiting, with a gradual resolution of symptoms over several days; however, illness lasting longer than 1 week occurs in 10% to 20% of patients seeking medical attention, and relapse may be seen in another 5% to 10% of patients who do not receive treatment. 44,143–146

Fever may be low grade or consist of daily peaks above 40°C (104°F). Initially, stools may be watery, but as the illness progresses they may become frankly bloody; tenesmus is a common symptom. In the most severe forms, patients appear very ill, and toxic megacolon has been reported. 147

Occasionally, acute abdominal pain may be the major or only symptom of infection. 150 Although any quadrant of the abdomen may be affected, patients most often complain of pain in the right lower quadrant. As with Yersinia enterocolitica and Salmonella enteritidis, C. jejuni may cause pseudoappendicitis. 44,143

#Campylobacter #Maladies-infectieuses-et-tropicales
Bacteremia has been noted in less than 1% of patients with C. jejuni infection. In part, this low frequency reflects the fact that physicians rarely perceive diarrheal illness as an indication for blood culture, even when fever is present. Nevertheless, bacteremia appears to be more common in infections in people at the extremes of age. 58,155,156

First, there may be a transient bacteremia in a normal host with acute Campylobacter enteritis. The bacteremia may be discovered several days after blood cultures are obtained, by which time the patient usually has completely recovered. The course is benign, and no specific treatment based on the positive blood culture result is usually indicated.

Second, there may be a sustained bacteremia or deep focus of infection in a previously normal host; usually the patient has an acute enteritis as well. The C. jejuni isolates are generally relatively or absolutely serum resistant. 157 Bacteremia usually has its origin in the intestinal tract inflammation and responds to antimicrobial therapy

Third, sustained bacteremia or deep infection may occur in an immunocompromised host; many such patients do not have an acute enteritis. C. jejuni isolates are usually serum sensitive. 157 However, as with other gram-negative bacteria, C. jejuni bacteremia may produce fever and shock. 158 Antimi- crobial therapy, which may need to be prolonged, is required for elimina- tion or suppression of this infection

GBS is a strongly associated but uncommon consequence of C. jejuni infection (estimated at 1 case per 2000 infections) that usually occurs 2 or 3 weeks after the diarrheal illness. 166,167 From 20% to 50% of GBS cases follow C. jejuni infections, reflecting in part the high incidence of these infections. 166–170

A particular group of C. jejuni organisms marked by LPS serotype O:19 is overrepresented among people who develop GBS. 170–172 A recent study demonstrated that C. jejuni O:19 chaperone proteins share high primary sequence homology with heat shock proteins found on human peripheral nerves; these structures as well as capsular and LPS glycolipids may be involved in the molecular mimicry trigger- ing GBS. 173 Serotype O:41 has also been implicated, and other sporadic cases may be due to specific C. jejuni strains with sialylation of their LPS molecules. 174–176

C. fetus infections may cause intermittent diarrhea or nonspecific abdominal pain without localizing signs. The diarrheal illness may manifest exactly like C. jejuni infection and is more common than was suspected several years ago. Clinical manifestations are similar and sequelae uncommon. Nearly all affected patients survive the infections when appropriate antibiotic treatment is given and usually do well without antibiotic treatment.

C. fetus also may cause a prolonged relapsing illness characterized by fever, chills, and myalgias, in which a source of infection cannot be demonstrated. 142,187 Occasionally, secondary seeding of an organ will occur, leading to a more complicated infec- tion 187,188 and sometimes to a fulminant, fatal course

C. fetus infections appear to have a predilection for vascular sites; vascular necrosis occurs in patients with endocarditis and pericarditis resulting from this organism. 189–191 Mycotic aneurysms of the abdominal aorta and, rarely, peripheral arteries also occur. 192 Thrombophlebitis may be associated with C. fetus bacteremia, but whether it is the primary event or a secondary manifestation of the infection is uncertain. Patients with a bacteremic illness without localization should be carefully evaluated for the presence of septic thrombophlebitis, because the response is good when this condition is treated with appropriate antibiotics

Central nervous system (CNS) infections with C. fetus occur in neonates and adults. The prognosis is poor for premature infants, but five of six full-term neonates in one series survived infection.

Meningoencephalitis is also the most common CNS manifesta- tion of C. fetus infection in adults. 194 Cerebrovascular accidents, sub- arachnoid hemorrhages, and brain abscesses also occur. The prognosis is better in adults than in neonates, with a survival rate of approximately 67%, although neurologic sequelae are frequent.

Antibiotic resistance to fluo- roquinolones may develop in immunocompromised patients who receive monotherapy regimens. 197 Nevertheless, in other patients, self-limiting bacteremia without any sequelae has been observed. Hypogammaglobu- linemic patients may have persistent bacteremia and local symptoms unless given chronic suppressive therapy with antibiotics.
