Summary
Non-O1/non-O139 vibrios refer to all vibrios except toxin producing Vibrio cholerae serogroups O1 and O139. The prevalence of illness caused by non-O1/non-O139 vibrios steadily increases all over the world in the last 20 years, which is very probably related to global warming. These infections are reported year-round from tropical and subtropical climate zones, but they were also detected in the mild climate zone of the United States of America and Europe. In mild climate, they have markedly seasonal occurrence, typically peaking in May to October. A human can be infected after ingestion of contaminated food, especially seafood and fish, or water or while bathing. In Europe, non-O1/non-O139 vibrios were detected in the Baltic Sea, North Sea and Mediterranean Sea but also in ponds and rivers. Depending on the pathogen entry route, the clinical manifestation may appear as gastroenteritis, otitis, wound infection or severe up to fatal illness, predominantly in immunocompromised patients. There is no specific prevention. Non-specific prevention includes good personal and food handling hygiene practices and avoiding contact of unhealed wounds with sea or surface swimming water. Given the severity and increasing frequency of infections caused by non-O1/non-O139 vibrios, they should be considered in differential diagnosis of gastrointestinal and wound infections, especially in patients with a history of consumption of fish and seafood or with a history of contact of unhealed wounds with sea or other open swimming water.
