Lactococcus garvieae is only rarely isolated from clinical specimens. We report a case of prosthetic valve endocarditis caused by L. garvieae in an elderly patient. Molecular methods based on the 16S rRNA and sodA(int) gene sequences confirmed the phenotypic identification of this opportunistic human pathogen.
加氏乳球菌很少从临床标本中分离出来。我们报告了一例老年患者由加氏乳球菌引起的人工瓣膜心内膜炎病例。基于16S rRNA和sodA(int)基因序列的分子方法证实了这种机会性人类病原体的表型鉴定。
