Thoracic vertebral actinomycosis: Actinomyces israelii and Fusobacterium nucleatum.

Hitoshi Honda1, Matthew J Bankowski, Eric H N Kajioka, Nalurporn Chokrungvaranon, Wesley Kim, Scott T Gallacher.   

Abstract

Actinomyces spp. are considered rare pathogens in today's medicine, especially with thoracic vertebral involvement. Classic actinomycosis (50%) presents as an oral-cervicofacial ("lumpy jaw") infection. This report describes a case of spinal cord compression caused by Actinomyces israelii with the coisolation of Fusobacterium nucleatum. There are limited numbers of similar cases.
