First case report of splenomegaly with splenic infarction due to aortic graft infection

Yuntae Kim, Kazuhiro Ishikawa, Fujimi Kawai, Nobuyoshi Mori

Summary: A case of aortic graft infection with splenomegaly and splenic infarction is reported. The patient, who had undergone total arch replacement for Stanford type A acute aortic dissection, presented with fever, night sweat, and weight loss. Imaging tests revealed splenic infarction, fluid collection, and thrombus around the stent graft, as well as abnormal F-18-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in the graft and spleen. The patient was diagnosed with graft infection and underwent graft replacement and antibiotic treatment.

First Bacteremia Due to Corynebacterium gottingense in an Immunocompromised Child: A Case Report, 16S rDNA-Based Phylogenetic Analyses and Review of the Literature

Lucas Bouguerra, Chrystelle Dupraz, Chloe Plouzeau, Anthony Michaud, Lauranne Broutin, Julie Cremniter, Christophe Burucoa, Maxime Pichon

Summary: We report a case of catheter-associated bloodstream infection by C. gottingense in a 13-year-old immunocompromised child with febrile neutropenia induced for osteosarcoma. The species was identified using Sanger sequencing and phylogenetic analysis. The strain was susceptible to amoxicillin and the patient was treated with piperacillin/tazobactam initially and then switched to oral amoxicillin. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rDNA did not predict the clinical outcome.

Bacteremia and adrenal gland abscess due to Nocardia cyriacigeorgica: a case report and review

Florian Saunier, Sylvain Grange, Josselin Rigaill, Marie-France Lutz, Amandine Gagneux-Brunon, Elisabeth Botelho-Nevers

Summary: This article reports a rare case of disseminated Nocardia infection with bacteremia and adrenal gland abscess in a 77-year-old immunocompetent man. After 6 months of antibiotic treatment, all lesions completely regressed. This case highlights the need for clinicians to be aware of this rare location and prioritize a non-invasive diagnostic strategy.

Molecular and Clinical Features of Fluconazole Non-susceptible Candida albicans Bloodstream Isolates Recovered in Korean Multicenter Surveillance Studies

Min Ji Choi, Yong Jun Kwon, Seung A. Byun, Mi-Na Kim, Wee Gyo Lee, Jaehyeon Lee, Dongeun Yong, Chulhun L. Chang, Eun Jeong Won, Soo Hyun Kim, Seung Yeob Lee, Jong Hee Shin

Summary: We studied the mechanism and clinical features of acquired fluconazole resistance (FR) in 14 fluconazole non-susceptible (FNS) isolates of Candida albicans recovered from bloodstream infections in Korea. Mutations in drug-target gene ERG11 and transcription factor genes TAC1, MRR1, and UPC2 were compared between FNS and fluconazole-susceptible isolates. We found that amino acid substitutions in ERG11 and TAC1 likely contribute to FR in C. albicans bloodstream infections, and most FNS infections occur without azole exposure.
