A rare case of Streptococcus sanguinis mycotic popliteal aneurysm
INTRODUCTION Mycotic popliteal aneurysms are not a common phenomenon. They can initially be easily confused with other more trivial conditions such as a Baker's cyst. We present a case of a patient presenting with a progressively worsening leg swelling which was initially misdiagnosed. Only until symptoms rapidly progressed was a popliteal aneurysm diagnosed. To our knowledge this is the only i...
متن کاملMyocarditis and Meningitis during Early Sepsis in a Neonate with Streptococcus pseudopneumoniae: A Case Report

Viruses are most often the infectious disease found to cause acute myocarditis. On the other hand, bacterial myocarditis (BM) is an unusual cause of infectious myocarditis. BM is commonly seen in the context of sepsis or as...

متن کاملGenome of the opportunistic pathogen Streptococcus sanguinis.
The genome of Streptococcus sanguinis is a circular DNA molecule consisting of 2,388,435 bp and is 177 to 590 kb larger than the other 21 streptococcal genomes that have been sequenced. The G+C content of the S. sanguinis genome is 43.4%, which is considerably higher than the G+C contents of other streptococci. The genome encodes 2,274 predicted proteins, 61 tRNAs, and four rRNA operons. A 70-k...
متن کاملRole of Streptococcus sanguinis sortase A in bacterial colonization.
Streptococcus sanguinis, a normal inhabitant of the human oral cavity, has low cariogenicity, though colonization on tooth surfaces by this bacterium initiates aggregation by other oral bacteria and maturation of dental plaque. Additionally, S. sanguinis is frequently isolated from infective endocarditis patients. We investigated the functions of sortase A (SrtA), which cleaves LPXTG-containing...
