Primary infective spondylodiscitis caused by Lactococcus garvieae and a review of human L. garvieae infections
We report the first case of primary infective spondylodiscitis due to Lactococcus garvieae, confirmed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing, in the absence of concomitant endocarditis in a patient with long-standing gastritis on famotidine. He responded to a 6-week course of ampicillin. The gastrointestinal t...

He responded to a 6-week course of ampicillin. The gastrointestinal tract is probably the source of infection. |
