[Yersinia pseudotuberculosis septicemia in adults (author's transl)]
Abstract
The authors discuss the clinical and bacterial characteristics and progressive changes occurring in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis septicemia, basing their observations on one personal case and 30 adult cases reported in the published literature. The roles played by a generally poor condition of the patient and martial overloading are emphasized, and the changes brought about by the introduction of antibiotic therapy evaluated.
