ABSTRACT

Listeriosis is a rare and severe foodborne infection caused by Listeria monocytogenes. It manifests as septicemia, neurolisteriosis, and maternal-fetal infection. In pregnancy, it may cause maternal fever, premature delivery, fetal loss, neonatal systemic and central nervous system infections. Maternal listeriosis is mostly reported during the 2nd and 3rd trimester of pregnancy, as sporadic cases or in the context of outbreaks. Strains belonging to clonal complexes 1, 4 and 6, referred to as hypervirulent, are the most associated to maternal-neonatal infections. Here we review the clinical, pathophysiological, and microbiological features of maternal-neonatal listeriosis.

摘要

李斯特菌病是一种由李斯特菌引起的罕见且严重的食源性感染。它表现为败血病，神经性李斯特菌病和母胎感染。在怀孕期间，它可能引起产妇发烧，早产，胎儿流失，新生儿全身和中枢神经系统感染。母体李斯特菌病主要在妊娠的第2和第3个月期间报告，为偶发病例或爆发时。属于克隆复合物1、4和6的菌株（称为高毒力）与母体-新生儿感染最相关。在这里，我们审查母体-新生儿李斯特菌病的临床，病理生理和微生物学特征。
