Streptobacillus moniliformis right hand abscess and monoarthritis following a rat bite

Streptobacillus moniliformis is a zoonotic agent associated with rat bites. We present a patient with cellulitis, subcutaneous abscess, and septic mono-arthritis after a rat bite of the right hand.

description Streptobacillus moniliformis is a zoonotic agent associated with rat bites. We present a patient with cellulitis, subcutaneous abscess, and septic mono-arthritis after a rat bite of the right hand. The patient had no systemic features of rat bite fever (RBF). S. moniliformis was cultured from purulent drainage of a thumb abscess. This case illustrates an unusual clinical presentation of streptobacillary infection after a rat bite.
