Sneathia sanguinegens is an infrequent bacterium in clinical specimens. We describe a case of right elbow septic arthritis due to a Sneathia species most closely related to S. sanguinegens in a young immunocompetent woman. S. sanguinegens has never been implicated in osteoarticular infections.
血居菌属是一种在临床标本中少见的细菌。我们报道了一例年轻免疫功能正常女性因与血居菌属关系最密切的居菌属菌种引起的右肘化脓性关节炎。血居菌属从未被牵涉到骨关节炎感染中。
