Staphylococcus Lugdunensis, An Aggressive Coagulase-Negative Pathogen not to be Underestimated

International Journal of Artificial Organs, 2012
The new emerging coagulase-negative pathogen Staphylococcus lugdunensis is responsible for severe cardiac and joint infections. Since the biochemical phenotypic systems designed for the identification of CoNS do not appear to be species specific and are hardly reliable for the discrimination of S.

Coagulase-negative staphylococcus endocarditis: staphylococcus lugdunensis

Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2011
Staphylococcus lugdunensis is an infrequent cause of native valve endocarditis. A case of triple-valve involvement of Staphylococcus lugdunensis with intracardiac fistula formation in a 47-year-old woman was managed successfully with surgery. The importance of early diagnosis and prompt referral for surgical treatment is highlighted.

Coagulase-Negative Staphylococcus Bacteriuria in a Child

Pediatrics, 1972
A 5-year-old boy with persistent nocturnal enuresis was found to be infected with coagulase-negative staphylococci. Evaluation showed major urologic abnormalities with significant histologic changes. Review of the literature revealed a paucity of data relative to the pathogenicity of coagulase-negative staphylococci in urinary tract disease.

Coagulase-Negative Staphylococcus in Chronic Prostatitis

Journal of Urology, 1992
Three male patients with a clinical history of prostatitis with coagulase-negative staphylococci localized to the expressed prostatic secretion and who did not respond to antibiotics were studied intensively 4 weeks after cessation of therapy with repeat culture of the prostatic fluid, as well as with culture, and histological and ultrastructural ...

Identification of coagulase-negative staphylococci other than Staphylococcus epidermidis by automated ribotyping

Clinical Microbiology and Infection, 2005
As routine identification of coagulase-negative staphylococci is problematic, the performance of automated ribotyping was evaluated for identification of coagulase-negative staphylococci other than Staphylococcus epidermidis.

LYSOGENY IN A COAGULASE-NEGATIVE STAPHYLOCOCCUS

Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1962
A temperate phage (S-13), for which a coagulase-negative strain (SA-13) is lysogenic, was isolated during an investigation of lysogenicity in coagulase-negative staphylococci. Its indicator strain (SA-14) is also coagulase-negative and the phage can be propagated on it.

Coagulase-Negative Staphylococcus sp septicemia in a lovebird

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1989
Gram-positive cocci were observed within phagocytes in the blood of a psittacine with clinical signs of blindness and CNS disease. A coagulase-negative Staphylococcus sp was isolated from blood cultures, and the bird was successfully treated with chloramphenicol.

Misidentification of vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus as coagulase-negative Staphylococcus

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2012
Reduced vancomycin susceptibility in Staphylococcus aureus in many cases appears to be associated with changes in biological characteristics, including reduced coagulase activity, cell wall thickening, slow growth, smaller colonies, decreased pigment formation and less or no haemolysis. Whether these changes affect identification by routine methods has
