A Review of Fusobacterium necrophorum Infections in Humans
British Microbiology Research Journal, 2014The incidence of human infections caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum is recently on the increase and this is attributed largely to alteration in antibiotic usage pattern, malnutrition and poor oral hygiene. These infections are usually acquired exogenously from animals such as dogs, livestock or humans and ranges from mild sore throat to severe ...

Human infections with Fusobacterium necrophorum
Anaerobe, 2006Fusobacterium necrophorum is a Gram-negative anaerobic bacillus that can be a primary pathogen causing either localised abscesses and throat infections or systemic life-threatening disease. Systemic infections due to F. necrophorum are referred to as either Lemierre's disease/syndrome, post-anginal sepsis or necrobacillosis, but in the context of this ...

Fusobacterium nucleatum infection mimicking metastatic cancer
Indian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2012A 48-year-old man presented with fevers, chills, weight loss, multiple liver masses, and several superficial and deep venous thromboses in lower extremities. Cancer work up was negative. A liver biopsy grew Fusobacterium nucleatum. To our knowledge, F.

Severe forefoot infection complicated by Fusobacterium russii
Anaerobe, 2016We present the first case of a complicated foot infection caused by Fusobacterium russii in Austria. F. russii is highly associated with mammals such as cats and dogs. Our case underlines the difficulties in isolation and identification of anaerobes and the pitfalls in antimicrobial treatment of polymicrobial infections.

Clonality of Fusobacterium nucleatum in root canal infections
Oral Microbiology and Immunology, 2002Fusobacterium nucleatum is a gram‐negative non‐spore‐forming, non‐motile, obligate anaerobic rod that is normally isolated from the oral cavity. Several studies have reported a significant heterogeneity within the F. nucleatum species. The aim of the present study was to analyze the clonal diversity of F.

Fusobacterium necrophorum Septicemia Following Oropharyngeal Infection
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1982Fusobacterium necrophorum septicemia developed in five patients after an oropharyngeal infection. Four patients had sore throat or neck pain, and two had findings of jugular vein septic thrombophlebitis. Metastatic abscesses, including embolic pneumonia, empyema, septic arthritis, and osteomyelitis, also occurred.

Fusobacterium necrophorum infections in animals: Pathogenesis and pathogenic mechanisms
Anaerobe, 2005Fusobacterium necrophorum, a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming anaerobe, is a normal inhabitant of the alimentary tract of animals and humans. Two subspecies of F. necrophorum, subsp. necrophorum (biotype A) and subsp. funduliforme (biotype B), have been recognized, that differ morphologically, biochemically, and biologically. The subsp.

Fusobacterium necrophorum infection associated with portal vein thrombosis
Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2005This report describes a patient without obvious upper respiratory tract or gastrointestinal infection who developed portal vein thrombosis secondary to Fusobacterium necrophorum septicaemia. The patient responded well to systemic antibiotic therapy. The implications of F. necrophorum infection caudal to the head are discussed.

Molecular diagnosis of Fusobacterium necrophorum infection (Lemierre?s syndrome)
European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2005Presented here is the case of a 27-year-old male with atypical features of Lemierre's syndrome in which a definitive diagnosis was achieved using molecular methods. While routine investigations, including bacterial cultures, were unhelpful, two real-time PCR assays demonstrated Fusobacterium necrophorum-specific DNA in aspirates from brain and renal ...

Pathological changes produced by Fusobacterium necrophorum in experimental infection of mice
Journal of Comparative Pathology, 1976Abstract The pathological changes associated with an animal model (mouse) for the production of hepatic abscesses by experimental infections of Fusobacterium necrophorum are described. The abscess progresses from coagulative necrosis to a true abscess with encapsulated pus in 10 days.
