Abstract
Infectious myositis is rather uncommon. When caused by anaerobic organisms, myositis is usually polymicrobial. Trauma, ischemia, or a contiguous focus of infection is often an antecedent of myositis. We report a case of monomicrobial veillonella myositis in an immunocompromised patient. The infection responded to debridement and therapy with metronidazole.Entities:
