چکیده انگلیسی
Three cases of severe necrotising fasciitis due to Vibrio vulnificus (two cases) and Vibrio parahaemolyticus (one case, fatal), have occurred in Caucasian tourists while fishing at a remote tropical northern Australian estuarine area. Infections were acquired over a 4-year period during the tourist fishing season (April to July 2000-2003), when water temperatures range from 23 to 30 °C. They are notable for their geographical clustering in the remote western aspect of the Gulf of Carpentaria, an area characterised by sedimentary stratiform zinc-lead-silver deposits and a major mining operation. Patients presented with classical bullous cellulitis with necrotising fasciitis, accompanied by severe sepsis. Underlying risk factors were identified in each patient; in one instance, previously unrecognised haemochromatosis was diagnosed. Likely reasons for Vibrio occurrence in this particular ecological niche are discussed.
