Ochrobactrum anthropi is an aerobic Gram-negative bacillus, formerly known as "Achromobacter group Vd". It is increasingly recognized as a potentially problematic, opportunistic, and nosocomial pathogen. Most cases of human diseases due to O. anthropi are associated with central venous catheter line infection; few case reports about infective endocarditis, pancreatic abscess, puncture wound osteochondritis, endophthalmitis, urinary tract infection, meningitis, pelvic abscess, and osteomyelitis are present in the literature. Among the previously stated infections it can cause, infective endocarditis is very rare; only four cases have been described in the literature. Here, we report the case of an immunocompromised man who developed native valve endocarditis with septic cerebral embolization due to O. anthropi. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
