Streptococcus anginosus ("Streptococcus milleri"): the unrecognized pathogen.
"Streptococcus milleri" is an unofficial name that has been applied to a group of streptococci which, although basically similar, show various hemolytic, serological, and physiological characteristics. The species name Streptococcus anginosus has recently been recognized as the approved name for these organisms. Streptococci known as "S. milleri" have been implicated as etiologic agents in a va...
متن کاملStreptococcus anginosus bacteremia: Sutton's law.
In the August issue of the Journal of Clinical Microbiology, Hadid and colleagues reported an interesting case of Streptococcus anginosus endocarditis complicated with endophthalmitis (3). The case illustrated the old concept of Sutton’s law with another perspective. The case reported had a fundal picture suspicious of a fungal infection. Together with the presence of fever and the constellatio...
متن کاملPhenotypic differentiation of Streptococcus intermedius, Streptococcus constellatus, and Streptococcus anginosus strains within the "Streptococcus milleri group".
A biochemical scheme was developed by which strains of Streptococcus constellatus, Streptococcus intermedius, and Streptococcus anginosus can reliably be distinguished from within the "Streptococcus milleri group." Strains identified as S. intermedius were differentiated by the ability to produce detectable levels of alpha-glucosidase, beta-galactosidase, beta-D-fucosidase, beta-N-acetylgalacto...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Streptococcus anginosus J4211, a Clinical Isolate
Streptococcus anginosus is an opportunistic human pathogen that causes abscesses of the brain, liver, and other organs. Here, we announce the complete genome sequence of a clinically isolated strain of S. anginosus J4211. The genome sequence contains two prophages and multiple mobile genetic elements.
متن کاملColon Carcinoma Presenting as Streptococcus anginosus Bacteremia and Liver Abscess
A collection of dead white blood cells within the liver is called a liver abscess, and pyogenic liver abscess (PLA) is the most common type. PLA is commonly associated with biliary tract infections. However, in this case report, we present a rare cause of Streptococcus anginosus bacteremia and PLA which is associated with a carcinoma of the colon at the splenic flexure.
