Abstract

We report the first case of S. bovis bacteremia related to endoluminal colonization of a venous access port in a setting of advanced HIV infection, neutropenia and co-infection with HBV. The patient had no bowel abnormalities. The clinical picture was mild and was resolved by removal of the device.
