MOLECULAR DISSECTION OF MYCOPLASMA HOMINIS

APMIS, 2000
M. hominis is commonly found as part of the normal flora in the female genital tract, but several studies have shown that it may be involved in a variety of urogenital infections. The basis for clinical manifestations in some patients has varyingly been attributed to host and M. hominis factors.

Extrachromosomal DNA of Mycoplasma hominis

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Nucleic Acids and Protein Synthesis, 1973
Abstract An extrachromosomal circular duplex DNA has been isolated from Mycoplasma hominis. This plasmid DNA has a molecular weight of about 17.8 · 106, a buoyant density of 1.680 g/ml and appears to be unrelated to the similar sized Staphylococcus aureus penicillinase plasmids.

Extragenital Mycoplasma hominis infections in adults

The American Journal of Medicine, 1990
To heighten awareness of the role of Mycoplasma hominis as an extragenital pathogen in adults.Patients ranged in age from 14 to 76 years. Thirteen patients were immunosuppressed, including nine organ transplant recipients; three were receiving steroids, and two had an underlying malignancy. The remainder were immunocompetent.

Sternotomy Infections with Mycoplasma hominis

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1987
Mycoplasma hominis caused sternal wound infections with mediastinitis in three patients. One infection occurred in a nonimmunocompromised man after coronary artery bypass grafting. The wound did not heal after repeated debridement, closed irrigation of the mediastinum with povidone-iodine solution, and antimycoplasmal chemotherapy; muscle flap grafting
