is a Gram-positive, aerobic that is widely distributed in the environment worldwide. Little is known about infection and it is commonly mis-identified by culturing with commercial kits. To date, only six cases of bacteremia caused by have been reported in the literature. Herein, we report a case of bacteremia in an immunocompromised host. In this case report, the results of antimicrobial susceptibility testing showed that this clinical isolate of is sensitive to vancomycin, teicoplanin, but resistant to penicillin, cephalosporin and ciprofloxacin. Additionally, whole genome sequencing analysis identified common subunits of the urease system.
是一种革兰氏阳性需氧菌,在全球环境中广泛分布。关于其感染知之甚少,并且使用商业试剂盒培养时通常会被错误鉴定。迄今为止,文献中仅报道了6例由其引起的菌血症病例。在此,我们报告一例免疫功能低下宿主中的菌血症病例。在本病例报告中,抗菌药物敏感性测试结果显示,该临床分离株对万古霉素、替考拉宁敏感,但对青霉素、头孢菌素和环丙沙星耐药。此外,全基因组测序分析确定了脲酶系统的常见亚基。
