The use of mNGS with the MinION tool clearly provides a significant advantage compared to routine culture by identifying a higher diversity of pathogens in diabetic foot osteomyelitis. It also highlights the value of this method in clinical decision making, despite the technical challenges inherent in metagenomic sequencing.

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.

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.

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.

ABSTRACT The term “atypical wounds” primarily refers to lesions with immunological or cancerous etiologies. However, these wounds can also be drug‐induced. We report about a 32‐year‐old man with a 6‐year history of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) and chronic graft‐versus‐host disease (cGvHD) following an HLA‐compatible allogeneic stem cell ...

ABSTRACT Thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO) is a rare, tobacco‐associated vasculitis that primarily affects the distal extremities of young males. In advanced stages, it often leads to chronic limb ischemia with ischemic ulceration, culminating in amputation. Data on risk factors for reamputation in this population remain limited.
