Infection of a prosthetic knee joint with Peptostreptococcus magnus.

U M Davies1, A M Leak, J Davé.   

Abstract

Infection of a prosthetic knee joint with Peptostreptococcus magnus in an immunosuppressed patient with rheumatoid arthritis is described. The organism is a skin commensal, generally thought to be of low pathogenicity; the difficulty in making the diagnosis is emphasised.
