Abstract
Vibriovulnificus is a pathogen that can cause serious and fatal infections, primarily associated with a history of contact with the sea or aquatic organisms or products. However, with global climate change and increased global seafood trade, V. vulnificus infections are also occurring in non-coastal areas. In this report, we present the successful diagnosis and treatment of a case of necrotizing wound caused by V. vulnificus infection in an inland city in southwest China. In addition, we review the epidemiology and distribution of V. vulnificus in China and related vaccine research, which may provide a reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of V. vulnificus infection.
