Rare case of Corynebacterium striatum septic arthritis [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2016
Corynebacterium species are aerobic, Gram-positive bacilli that are commensal organisms of skin and mucosal membranes. Although its pathogenicity is well established, Corynebacterium striatum is frequently isolated in cultures and generally regarded as a contaminant. Rarely, this bacterium causes septic arthritis.

Predictors of Reamputation in Patients With Advanced‐Stage Thromboangiitis Obliterans Ulcers: A Retrospective Cohort Study

International Wound Journal, Volume 23, Issue 2, February 2026.
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.

Daptomycin resistance of Corynebacterium jeikeium due to pgsA gene mutation acquired during daptomycin treatment in a patient with infective endocarditis

International Journal of Infectious Diseases
Daptomycin is an alternative agent for invasive infections caused by Corynebacterium species in patients with intolerance to vancomycin. Although it has recently been recognized that treatment failure with daptomycin due to the emergence of resistant ...

A case of catheter related bloodstream infection by Corynebacterium striatum

IDCases, 2020
C. striatum is an innocuous inhabitant of the normal human epithelial and mucosal surfaces. The C. striatum ´s thogenic potential is increasingly recognized in our time.We present a rare case of CRBSI by C. striatum in a 57-yr-old male patient. The patient suffered from many basic diseases and was admitted to hospital of shock.The patient finally died ...

Shifts in the Lung Microbiota and Antibiotic Resistance Genes Occur With Aging in Patients With Lower Respiratory Tract Infections

BioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) are a leading cause of critical illness and mortality. The lung microbiome represents an important reservoir for the exchange of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). The pathogenic microbes remain poorly understood among different age groups, including children (0–17 years), youth (18–39 years), middle‐aged ...

Antibioflm effects of extracellular matrix degradative agents on the biofilm of different strains of multi-drug resistant Corynebacterium striatum

Annals of Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials, 2022
Background Corynebacterium striatum is a microorganism with an excellent capacity for biofilm production and thus has been correlated with nosocomial transmission and invasive infections.

Beyond ‘One Size Fits All’: Abatement of Linezolid‐Induced Thrombocytopenia Through Therapeutic Drug Monitoring and Precision Dosing—A Case Study

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Linezolid is an oxazolidinone antibiotic used in the treatment of Gram‐positive bacterial infections. However, its prolonged use is often limited by adverse effects, including thrombocytopenia. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) has been proposed to individualize linezolid dosing to mitigate such adverse effects. This study presents a case of

A Case of Acute Myelogenous Leukemia in Long‐Term Remission After Severe Infection Following Only One Course of Chemotherapy

Case Reports in Hematology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) is characterized by the uncontrolled growth of tumor cells in the bone marrow. Standard treatment includes induction remission therapy followed by several courses of consolidation chemotherapy. The 5‐year disease‐free survival rate is only 39%.

Biofilm production by multiresistant Corynebacterium striatumassociated with nosocomial outbreak [PDF]

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2015
Corynebacterium striatum is a potentially pathogenic microorganism that causes nosocomial outbreaks. However, little is known about its virulence factors that may contribute to healthcare-associated infections (HAIs).
