Breast abscess associated with Helcococcus kunzii.

A H Chagla¹, A A Borczyk, R R Facklam, M Lovgren.

Abstract

Helcococcus kunzii, a nonvirulent member of the human skin flora, has recently been implicated in causing infections in immunosuppressed patients. We report a case of breast abscess associated with H. kunzii in an immunocompetant patient and discuss the criteria used in its identification and our observations of susceptibility testing for this species.
