A case is reported of postoperative spondylodiskitis due to Stomatococcus mucilaginosus in an immunocompetent woman. The route of infection remains unknown. Intravenous treatment with cefotaxime and fosfomycin was given, followed by oral administration of rifampin and pristinamycin until resolution of infection. This report shows that this bacterium can cause severe infections in immunocompetent patients.
