We report a case of acute enteritis caused by Shewanella algae in a cirrhotic patient.
Biochemical identification systems revealed to be insufficient to identify the Shewanella
isolate at the species level, thus requiring 16S rRNA and gyrB partial gene sequencing.
Even if co-infection by Clostridium difficile could not be ruled out, this is, to our knowledge,
the first report of acute enteritis caused by Shewanella algae in Europe.
Abstract
We report a case of acute enteritis caused by Shewanella algae in a cirrhotic patient. Biochemical identification systems revealed to be insufficient to identify the Shewanella isolate at the species level, thus requiring 16S rRNA and gyrB partial gene sequencing. Even if co-infection by Clostridium difficile could not be ruled out, this is, to our knowledge, the first report of acute enteritis caused by Shewanella algae in Europe.
