Streptococcus anginosus forms a part of the commensal flora of the oral cavity. However, it can be aggressive and may lead to gastrointestinal and urogenital infections. We present an interesting case and course in a 38-year-old immunocompetent female patient with pyogenic liver abscess due to S. anginosus infection who had multiple carious teeth and underlying pulmonary tuberculosis.
咽峡炎链球菌是口腔共生菌群的一部分。然而，它可能具有侵袭性，可导致胃肠道和泌尿生殖系统感染。我们报告了一例有趣的病例及病程，患者为一名38岁免疫功能正常的女性，因咽峡炎链球菌感染导致化脓性肝脓肿，患者有多个龋齿且患有潜在的肺结核。
