A case of melioidosis originating in North America.

P F Barnes, M D Appleman, M M Cosgrove.   

Abstract

A case of melioidosis is described in a patient from Mexico. The cases that have been previously reported to originate in the western hemisphere are critically reviewed. The clinician must be aware of this rare disease because its treatment is quite different from that of other gram-negative infections.
