Abstract

Pantoea agglomerans, formerly known as Enterobacter agglomerans, is a facultative anaerobic Gram-negative bacillus and form yellow-pigmented colonies on culture media. It is an environmental microorganism, commonly found in soil, water, plants and food and can colonize in gastrointestinal system of humans. Although quite rare, P. agglomerans can cause wound infections, soft tissue or joint infections and nosocomial infections such as bacteriemia, pneumonia, septic arthritis, urinary tract infections, peritonitis, surgical wound infections and catheter related infections especially in immunocompromised patients. In this case report, we present a case of recurrent infections caused by P. agglomerans in a female chronic renal failure patient.

Özet

Önceden Enterobacter aglomerans olarak bilinen Pantoea aglomerans, fakültatif anaerobic, Gram negatif bir basildir ve kültür ortamında sarı pigmentli koloniler oluşturur. Toprakta, suda, bitkilerde ve yiyeceklerde yaygın olarak bulunan ve insanların gastrointestinal sisteminde kolonize olabilen çevresel bir mikroorganizmadır. Oldukça nadir olmakla birlikte, P. aglomerans yara enfeksiyonlarına, yumuşak doku veya eklem enfeksiyonlarına ve özellikle bağışıklığı baskılanmış hastalarda, bakteriyemi, pnömoni, septik artrit, idrar yolu enfeksiyonları, peritonit, cerrahi yara enfeksiyonları ve kateterle ilgili enfeksiyonlar gibi hastane enfeksiyonlarına neden olabilir. Bu vaka raporunda, kronik böbrek yetmezliği olan bir kadın hastada tekrarlayan enfeksiyonlara neden olan P. aglomerans ile ilgili olguyu sunuyoruz.
