Popis: | Helicobacter cinaedi bacteremia caused recurring multifocal cellulitis in a patient in France who had chronic lymphocytic leukemia treated with ibrutinib. Diagnosis required extended blood culture incubation and sequencing of the entire 16S ribosomal RNA gene from single bacterial colonies. Clinicians should consider H. cinaedi infection in cases of recurrent cellulitis. |
