Impending rupture of mycotic aortic aneurysm infected with Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus.

Qiuying Selina Liu1, Brannon Raney2,3, Farzana Harji2,3.   

Abstract

Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus is a beta-haemolytic, group C streptococcal bacterium. Although it is an opportunistic pathogen commonly found in horses, transmission to human can lead to severe infections. Here, we present a patient with S. equi subspecies zooepidemicus bacteraemia and consequent development of mycotic aneurysms. © BMJ Publishing Group Limited 2020. No commercial re-use.
