[Lactobacillus Rhamnosus sepsis in a preterm infant associated with probiotic integrator use: a case report.] / Sepsi da Lactobacillus Rhamnosus associato all'utilizzo di un integratore probiotico in un neonato pretermine: case report.

ABSTRACT

Preterm infants are at high risk of neonatal sepsis. We report a case of a preterm infant under prophylaxis with Lactobacillus Rhamnosus for necrotizing enterocolitis; the child develops neonatal sepsis by Lactobacillus Rhamnosus. The infection is improved after probiotic withdrawal and had complete remission after 20 days of specific antibiotic therapy.
