[Digestive origin of Campylobacter septicemias].
Whilst the animal origin fo human Campylobacteriosis is generally accepted, its epidemiology remains ill understood. Animal contact prior to a Campylobacter septicaemia is only rarely found. The frequent occurrence of episodes of diarrhoea immediately prior to the onset has led to a suspicion of a digestive portal of entry. Our aim is to provide incontrovertible proof of this hypothesis, reporting the results of systematic stool examinations for Campylobacter in the stools as well as 5 new cases of septicaemia.
