Metagenomic next-generation sequencing restores the diagnosis of a rare infectious complication of B cell depletion
Abstract
A 45-year-old female patient receiving rituximab for B cell non-Hodgkin follicular lymphoma presented unexplained recurrent fever, abdominal discomfort, and pollakiuria. We performed shotgun metagenomic sequencing from peri-kidney collection that identified a co-infection with Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma urealyticum. The patient recovered with sequelae after appropriate antibiotic treatment was given.
Keywords: B cell aplasia; Metagenomic next-generation sequencing; Mycoplasma hominis.
