P S Gronemeyer, A S Weissfeld, A C Sonnenwirth.   

Abstract

Septicemia caused by Corynebacteria group JK bacterium has previously been reported to occur in patients who have predisposing illness, such as neoplasms, ventriculoatrial shunt, or prosthetic valve. This study documents the case of an epicardial abscess caused by a Corynebacterium group JK organism in a 69-year-old woman who had an epicardial pacemaker.
