摘要：
Haemophilus aphrophilus is rarely implicated as an aetiology of spinal epidural abscess. A 73-year-old woman with liver cirrhosis who developed H. aphrophilus bacteraemia complicated with vertebral osteomyelitis and spinal epidural abscess is presented, Without surgical decompression, she was successfully treated with cefotaxime for 3 weeks, followed by maintenance with ciprofloxacin for another 10 weeks. The clinical features of eight previously reported cases of vertebral osteomyelitis without epidural abscess due to H. aphrophilus are reviewed.
