A fishy tale: a man with empyema caused by Streptococcus halichoeri.

Rui Min Foo1, Douglas Chan.   

Abstract

In 2004, veterinary laboratories in the United Kingdom reported a novel Lancefield group B streptococcus, Streptococcus halichoeri, in seals. We report a case of Streptococcus halichoeri causing postoperative empyema in a patient. A search of the literature revealed that this is the first case of S. halichoeri ever reported in humans.
