摘要：
Campylobacter fetus (C. fetus) bacteremia is rarely reported. In this article, a 51-year-old Chinese woman with severe hepatitis B virus infection complicated with alcoholic liver cirrhosis was admitted with a 3-month history of fatigue, jaundice, and edema of lower extremity, as well as presenting a high fever. Blood cultures were positive for Campylobacter fetus. The patient was started on treatment with cefuroxime, which was switched after 3 days to meropenem for an additional 2 weeks. The patient was successfully treated with the 3-week course of intravenous antibiotic therapy.
