Dolosigranulum pigrum: Predicting Severity of Infection.

John Sherret1, Bhavesh Gajjar1, Lamis Ibrahim2, Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed2, Utsab R Panta1.   

Abstract

In this report, we describe a case of a 61-year-old male patient who had the bacterium Dolosigranulum pigrum growing in a blood culture. It was susceptible to ampicillin, ceftriaxone, levofloxacin, and vancomycin but was intermediately resistant to erythromycin. The patient did not have a negative outcome as a consequence of this bacterium, which retrospectively could have been predicted based on the epidemiological data within the patient's profile.
