Abstract
events associated with dissemination and/or failure of source control have occurred. Favorable prognoses can be achieved through earlier identification of the cause of infection, as well as successful management, including appropriate antibiotic therapy together with source control. Further analyses of similar cases are required to establish the most adequate diagnostic methods and treatment regimens for infections.
