摘要：

Melioidosis is a disease of protean manifestations caused by the saprophytic gram-negative bacteria, Burkholderia pseudomallei. Most disease occurs among residents of Southeast Asia and Australia, but cases have been reported in returning travelers.(1.2) The degree of risk to travelers for brief visits is unknown. We report a case of melioidosis and the results of an epidemiologic survey among US Marines returning from military exercises on the coast of Thailand.
