| Popis: |
Staphylococcus pasteuri is a coagulase negative bacterium which although formally described in 1993, has only recently become possible to reliably speciate in diagnostic microbiology laboratories. S. pasteuri remains an extremely infrequent cause of human infection to date, namely bacteremia in an individual suffering acute myeloid leukemia, catheter-associated urinary tract infection in a patient receiving chemotherapy and endocarditis within a case series without specific clinical information. As such, our report provides the first detailed account of Staphylococcus pasteuri infective endocarditis entailing a subacute community-onset infection involving native aortic and mitral valves, multiple systemic emboli, and ultimately cardiothoracic surgery. Keywords: Staphylococcus pasteuri, Coagulase negative staphylococci, Infective endocarditis, Native valve endocarditis |
