MULTIPLE PULMONARY NODULES CAUSED BY Corynebacterium striatum IN AN IMMUNOCOMPETENT PATIENT
Nondiphtherial corynebacteria are ubiquitous in nature and commonly colonize the skin and mucous membranes of humans, however they rarely account for clinical infection.

Comparative genomic analysis of Acinetobacter spp. plasmids originating from clinical settings and environmental habitats [PDF]
Bacteria belonging to the genus Acinetobacter have become of clinical importance over the last decade due to the development of a multi-resistant phenotype and their ability to survive under multiple environmental conditions.

Septicaemia in a granulocytopenic patient caused by Corynebacterium striatum [PDF]
Summary A 64 year old woman with metastatic endometrial carcinoma was admitted to the hospital after three grand mal seizures. Blood cultures yielded Corynebacterium striatum. The patient responded to parenteral ampicillin therapy. This is believed to be the first case of sepsis caused by this organism.

Pasteurella spp. are rare but important zoonotic pathogens that can cause prosthetic joint infection (PJI). We present 3 cases of Pasteurella prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) following close animal contact that required treatment with DAIR (debridement, antibiotics, and implant retention) procedures. An extensive literature review was performed which

A Spontaneous Joint Infection with Corynebacterium striatum [PDF]
ABSTRACT Corynebacterium striatum is a ubiquitous saprophyte with the potential to cause bacteremia in immunocompromised patients. Until now, spontaneous infection of a natural joint has not been reported. When phenotyping failed, gene sequencing was used to identify the species.

This study conducted a retrospective analysis of microbiological culture results and antimicrobial resistance patterns in patients with sternal osteomyelitis at a tertiary medical center. The primary pathogens causing sternal osteomyelitis were gram‐positive bacteria. Infections with multidrug‐resistant organisms were also relatively common among these
