Fatal case of endocarditis due to Weissella confusa.

James D Flaherty1, Paul N Levett, Floyd E Dewhirst, Theodore E Troe, John R Warren, Stuart Johnson.   

Abstract

This is the first reported case of endocarditis due to the Lactobacillus-like vancomycin-resistant gram-positive bacillus Weissella confusa. Full identification and susceptibility testing of Lactobacillus-like organisms recovered in blood culture should be performed for patients with clinical presentations that suggest endocarditis.
