Keywords:
Anaerobic spiral shaped rods, Spiral shaped rods, Anaerobiospirillum, bacteremiaAbstract
It is a case of bacteremia with anaerobic, spiral-shaped gram-negative rods, Anaerobiospirillum succiniciproducens in a patient with chronic liver disease. This infection had led to fatal outcomes in the patient. Prompt and precise microbiological diagnosis may lead to proper treatment and the auspicious outcome of these infections.References
