Renal Abscess and Recurrent Bacteremia Caused by Campylobacter Infection in an Adult With Common Variable Immunodeficiency
Campylobacter bacteremia and extraintestinal manifestations are extremely rare, occurring more frequently in immunocompromised patients. We report a rare clinical case of a 46-year-old female with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) presenting with a previously undescribed extraintestinal compli...
