Invasive Infections of Aggregatibacter (Actinobacillus) Actinomycetemcomitans
Aggregatibacter (Actinobacillus) actinomycetemcomitans, part of the normal flora of the mouth, is frequently found in human periodontal cultures and is an important pathogen causing various invasive infections, particularly infective endocarditis. In this study, we describe the clinical course and outcome of patients with A.

Infections due to Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans
Three cases are described which show the typical range of infections which may be caused by Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans. namely an actinomycosis-like infection. a prosthetic cardiac valve endocarditrs and a post-traumatic soft-tissue infection. Cultural studies are detailed.
