Abstract

Burkholderia gladioli is an unusual organism that has become increasingly responsible for infections in patients who are immunosuppressed, including patients who have undergone solid organ transplantation. This article presents a patient in whom a mediastinal mass due to Burkholderia gladioli developed after lung transplantation. A review of the literature is also presented.
