Myroides odoratus Cellulitis and Bacteremia: Case Report and Review

Pages 932-934 | Published online: 08 Jul 2009
 

Abstract

A case of Myroides odoratus cellulitis with bacteremia in an apparently immunocompetent man is presented. Although common in soil and water, this agent is a rare clinical isolate and is often not considered pathogenic. The virulence of M. odoratus may be greater than is currently believed and it should be considered in bacteremias from cutaneous sources in immunocompetent patients.
