Abstract
A 62-year-old man developed acute septic arthritis due to Corynebacterium xerosis. The patient was treated with ampicillin and rapidly recovered. To the authors' knowledge this is the only reported case of septic arthritis due to C. xerosis. Clinical features of this case and the five previously reported cases of diphtheroid arthritis are discussed.Entities:
