is a well known commensal organism of dogs but also a canine opportunistic pathogen. Reports of this organism being recovered from specimens from humans might suggest an increase prevalence in human infections and/or improved diagnostic leading to more accurate identification. Here we report a case of persistent infection in an adult female oncology patient including colonization of the tip of an indwelling catheter. Diligence by laboratories in correctly isolating and identifying this pathogen (including susceptibility testing) is essential for optimal patient care.
是犬的一种知名共生菌，但也是犬的机会致病菌。从人类标本中分离出该菌的报告可能表明人类感染的流行率增加，/或诊断水平提高，从而导致更准确的鉴定。本研究报告了一例成年女性肿瘤科患者的持续性感染病例，包括留置导管尖端的定植。实验室在正确分离和鉴定这种病原体（包括药敏试验）方面的努力对于优化患者护理至关重要。
