Abstract

Nocardiosis, characterized by poor prognosis and high mortality, is a local or systemic suppurative or granulomatous disease caused by Nocardia that is common in immunosuppressed individuals but rare in populations with normal immune function. This paper described one case of Nocardia gipuzkoensis disseminated infection in a patient with normal immune function by outlining the process of treatment, conducting literature review and by outlining the clinical characteristics, diagnostic criteria and standardized treatments of nocardia disease, in the hope of providing reference for subsequent treatment of rare Nocardia subspecies infections.
