Popis: | There are few published reports of the infectious sequellae of shark attack in humans. Using patient medical records and epidemiologic data from Vibrio surveillance forms maintained by the Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services, we describe the clinical features of three patients with shark-associated wounds from whom Vibrio organisms were recovered in pure culture from clinical specimens. |
