A middle-aged man presented with fever and shortness of breath. He had significant history of congestive heart disease and received deceased donor renal transplant 2 years prior to presentation. He was febrile and found to have sepsis. His initial blood cultures grew Streptococcus canis. Streptococcus canis causes rare infection in humans, and this is most likely the first case in the renal transplant population.
一名中年男性出现发热和呼吸急促症状。他有严重的充血性心脏病史，在出现症状前2年接受了已故供体肾移植。他发热，被诊断为脓毒症。他的初次血培养结果显示有犬链球菌生长。犬链球菌在人类中引起的感染较为罕见，这很可能是肾移植人群中的首例病例。
