“…Although Campylobacter jejuni is one of the most common pathogens causing acute bacterial enteritis in children and adults, neonatal enteritis is relatively rare (1,14,15). However, neonate bacteremia and meningitis have been documented, mainly in hospital outbreaks (5,10).…”

“…However, neonate bacteremia and meningitis have been documented, mainly in hospital outbreaks (5,10). Although mothers often have no history of diarrhea during pregnancy, contamination during delivery is the most likely route of transmission in neonates (1,14,15). However, accurate strain differentiation and careful analysis of patient data are necessary for the identification of other sources and routes of contamination.…”

Genotypic typing by restriction fragment length polymorphism and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis showed that two neonates in a neonatal ward were infected with the same Campylobacter jejuni strain. Isolates from the mother and brother of the index patient were identical to each other but distinct from the neonatal type. Genotyping results therefore suggested that the neonatal C. jejuni infection was nosocomial in origin.

“…One is perinatal transmission from mother to child, presumably as a re-suIt of the infant's passage through the birth canal; in these instances the mothers are not necessarily symptomatic. 2 The second is transmission from infants or other persons who are incontinent of feces to their caregivers. There is little transmission between adults except among homosexual men.…”

“…Two of the newborns had bloody diarrhea [10]. Since then, Karmali and Tan described one neonate in 1980 [4], and in 1981, Anders et al, [5]. reported eight cases of neonatal gastroenteritis due to campylobacter fetus ss jejuni infection.…”
