Case report: Metagenomics next-generation sequencing in the diagnosis of septic shock due to Fusobacterium necrophorum in a 6-year-old child [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology
Fusobacterium necrophorum (F. necrophorum) infection is rare in pediatrics. In addition, the detection time of F. necrophorum by blood culture is long, and the positive rate is low. Infection with F.

Fusobacterium necrophorum pelvic peritonitis and bacteremia mimicking intestinal necrosis

IDCases, 2021
Fusobacterium necrophorum infection is known to cause Lemierre's syndrome, not pelvic peritonitis. Herein, we report a case of Fusobacterium necrophorum pelvic peritonitis and bacteremia, without Lemierre's syndrome, mimicking intestinal necrosis.

Comparison of extracellular enzymes of Fusobacterium necrophorum subsp. necrophorum and Fusobacterium necrophorum subsp. funduliforme [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1993
A total of 10 strains each of Fusobacterium necrophorum subsp. necrophorum and Fusobacterium necrophorum subsp. funduliforme were tested for the production of 13 extracellular enzymes. DNase, alkaline phosphatase, and lipase were predominantly associated with all the strains of F. necrophorum subsp.

Bovine platelet aggregation by Fusobacterium necrophorum [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1989
Fusobacterium necrophorum aggregated bovine platelets. The aggregation was paralleled by the haemagglutinating ability of the organism. Treatment of the bacterial cells with antiserum to the homologous purified haemagglutinin reduced the degree of platelet aggregation.
