ABSTRACT
A total of 257 haemocultures were performed in 50 patients with opisthorchiasis when they presented signs and symptoms of biliary tract infection. 19 patients showed positive haemoculture. There are no significant relationship between the age of the patient and the incidence of positive haemoculture. Septic shock occurred in 5 patients, one patient died. Out of 221 aerobic cultures, 14% were positive and of the 36 anaerobic cultures 11% were positive. The most common organism was Staphylococcus followed by Klebsiella and Bacillus spp. Anaerobic bacterias were Streptococcus spp. Clostridia spp. was not found in this study. Most organisms were sensitive to cefotaxime, cephalothin, kanamycin and chloramphenicol, and the least sensitive to ampicillin.
