SR Print(0) ID 1141408823 T1 INFECTIONS DUE TO CAMPYLOBACTER AND RELATED ORGANISMS T2 Harrison's Infectious Diseases, 3e YR 2017 FD 2017 PB McGraw-Hill Education PP New York, NY SN 9781259835971 LK accessbiomedicalscience.mhmedical.com/content.aspx?aid=1141408823 RD 2022/05/19 AB Bacteria of the genus Campylobacter and of the related genera Arcobacter and Helicobacter(Chap. 60) cause a variety of inflammatory conditions. Although acute diarrheal illnesses are most common, these organisms may cause infections in virtually all parts of the body, especially in compromised hosts, and these infections may have late nonsuppurative sequelae. The designation Campylobacter comes from the Greek for “curved rod” and refers to the organism’s vibrio-like morphology.
