Central venous catheter-associated Nocardia bacteremia: an unusual manifestation of nocardiosis.

D P Kontoyiannis1, K L Jacobson, E E Whimbey, K V Rolston, I I Raad.   

Abstract

Nocardia bacteremia is very rare. We report 2 cases of central venous catheter-associated Nocardia bacteremia and review the literature. The limited clinical experience suggests that discontinuing the catheter and embarking on a relatively short course of appropriate antibiotics results in a good outcome.
