Abstract

Pantoea species, which are the members of Enterobacteriaceae family are gram-negative bacilli. It is identified as a rare cause of sepsis in neonatal intensive care units and found related to catheter or contaminated parenteral fluids. In this report, a preterm newborn who was infected with Pantoea agglomerans as a cause of early sepsis will be presented. In this case report, it is wanted to take attention that Pantoea agglomerans in preterm infants may be a rare cause of early neonatal sepsis and have a good prognosis.

Özet

Pantoea türleri Enterobacteriaceae ailesinde yer alan gram-negatif basillerdir. Yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitelerinde nadir bir sepsis etkeni olarak tanımlanmışlar ve genellikle katater ile veya kontamine parenteral sıvılarla ilişkili bulunmuşlardır. Bu yazıda, erken sepsis etkeni olarak Pantoea agglomerans ile enfekte olan preterm bir yenidoğan olgusu sunulacaktır. Pantoea agglomerans’ın nadir bir erken yenidoğan sepsis etkeni olabileceğine ve iyi bir prognoza sahip olduğuna dikkat çekmek istenmiştir.
