본 증례는 약물남용자가 아닌 환자에서 MRSA에 의한 말초주사부위 감염 후 발생한 화농성 척추추간판염의 첫 보고이다. 최근 MRSA에 의한 원내감염이 증가하고 있는 현실에 비추어 볼 때 말초주사부위 감염 후 MRSA에 의한 화농성 척추추간판염의 발생을 고려하여야 한다.
Infections of the intervertebral disc and adjacent vertebrae may present with spondylitis, discitis and spondylodiscitis and are hematogenous origin in most cases. Potential sources of hematogenous infection are skin and soft tissue infection, genitourinary tract infection, infective endocarditis, intravenous drug abuse, respiratory tract infection and infected intravenous injection site. We have experienced a case of pyogenic spondylitis caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia with peripheral injection site infection. He was successfully treated with surgical debridement and antibiotics.
