Abstract
A healthy 67-year-old male traveller developed a cholera-like disease after returning from a five-week stay in Pakistan and India. In addition toVibrio parahaemolyticus and large numbers ofPseudomonas aeruginosa, two strains of enterotoxigenicEscherichia coli were isolated from a single stool specimen. Ein 67-jähriger gesunder Reisender erkrankte an einer choleriformen Enteritis unmittelbar nach der Rückkehr von einer fünfwöchigen Reise durch Pakistan und Indien. Aus einer Stuhlprobe wurden nebenVibrio parahaemolyticus und massenhaftPseudomonas aeruginosa zwei verschiedene Stämme von enterotoxinbildendenEscherichia coli isoliert.Keywords
