Bacterial infection is a common complication after Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT). Morganella morganii is ubiquitous Gram-negative facultative anaerobe, which may cause many kinds of opportunistic infection. Herein we report a case of a 55-year-old man who presented with frequent urination, urgency, and mild pain that comes and goes low in the abdomen and around the anus. The pa...

Purulent pericarditis caused by Morganella morganii is extremely rare. We report herein a case of a 61-year-old man who presented with chest pain and dyspnea fourteen days after chemotherapy for multiple myeloma. Echocardiogram and computed tomography revealed a massive pericardial effusion and associated cardiac tamponade. Pericardiocentesis was performed. Pericardial fluid was found to be pur...

morganella morganii is rarely isolated from nosocomial infections. however, postoperative infections due to morganella spp. were documented in literature and eye involvements of the infections usually result in severe sequels.  we present a severe case infection, which was caused by m. morganii subsp . morganii, firstly appearing as conjunctivitis and complicated by bacteremia. the infectious a...

We report the 4.1-Mb draft genome sequence of Morganella morganii SC01, a gammaproteobacterium, isolated from an Indian human fecal sample.

Morganella species are the clinically characterized in the tribe Proteeae [1]. Morganella species infections are less frequent in healthy individuals. Morganella morganii (M. morganii) is Gram-negative and facultative anaerobic bacterium of the family Enterobacteriaceae. It exists as commensal within the intestinal tract of humans, mammals, and reptiles as a normal flora [2]. Originally, it was...

Morganella morganii is rarely isolated from nosocomial infections. However, postoperative infections due to Morganella spp. were documented in literature and eye involvements of the infections usually result in severe sequels. We present a severe case infection, which was caused by M. morganii subsp. morganii, firstly appearing as conjunctivitis and complicated by bacteremia. The infectious age...

This is a report of the whole-genome draft sequence of a diarrheagenic Morganella morganii isolate from a patient in Michigan, USA. This genome represents an important addition to the limited number of pathogenic M. morganii genomes available.

Morganella morganii was isolated from the lung of a guinea pig. Necropsy revealed hemorrhagic consolidation of the lungs, and histological examination revealed bronchointerstitial pneumonia. M. morganii is a commensal gram-negative bacillus of the intestinal tract of humans, mammals and reptiles. Only few reports of M. morganii associated disease in animals are available in the literature. To t...
