(SL) is a well-known skin commensal. It is coagulase-negative bacteria that has often been labeled as a contaminant. While coagulase-negative bacteria are not as virulent as aureus, there has been an increasing trend for this organism to be associated with complications commonly known to occur with its more aggressive counterpart. We report a case of causing infective endocarditis and pseudoaneurysm of the aorta.
(SL)是一种著名的皮肤共生菌。它是凝固酶阴性细菌,常被视为污染物。虽然凝固酶阴性细菌的毒性不如金黄色葡萄球菌,但这种微生物与通常由其更具侵袭性的同类细菌引起的并发症相关的趋势一直在增加。我们报告一例由(SL)引起感染性心内膜炎和主动脉假性动脉瘤的病例。
