Community Acquired Bacteremia by Sphingomonas paucimobilis: Two Rare Case Reports.
S.paucimobilis has a diverse nutritional substrate spectrum and found in both environmental and hospital settings. Sphingomonas paucimobilis is rarely isolated from clinical specimen. This low virulence organism since has been reported to cause a variety of diseases since 1979. It has been reported to be associated with both community acquired and nosocomial diseases including bacteremia, cathe...

متن کاملKocuria kristinae: a true pathogen in pediatric patients.
BACKGROUND Kocuria kristinae is a Gram-positive microorganism, which has rarely been reported as a pathogen that causes infection in humans. Recently, a few studies had concluded that this pathogen can indeed cause infection in immunocompromised hosts. However, the number of reports on K. kristinae infection in pediatric patients is still relatively limited. METHODS Clinical data on pediatric...
متن کاملA rare case of aerococcus urinae infective endocarditis
Introduction:Aerococcus urinae is a rare cause of infective endocarditis. Aerococcus is a gram positive cocci that is easily misidentified as Staphylococci or Streptococci. The true incidence rate of this pathogen is likely underestimated. Recent advances in laboratory diagnostic methods with matrix-associated laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) have lead...
