Burkholderia pseudomallei Misidentified by Automated System

After returning from Thailand, a 35-year-old man from Switzerland was hospitalized with an abscess of the head. Material cultured from the abscess and adjacent bone grew a gram-negative rod, which was misidentified by an automated microbiology system as Burkholderia cepacia. The organism was eventua...

The organism was eventually identified by molecular methods as B. pseudomallei.
