    Author: Gutschik E.
    Journal: Scand J Infect Dis; 1976; 8(4):271-4. PubMed ID: 1006175.
    Abstract:
    A case of severe endocarditis caused by Actinomyces viscosus is described in a previously healthy 70-year-old man. The isolated strain has been characterized by biochemical tests, gas-liquid chromatography and serology. The pathogenic significance of the organism is discussed and the difficulty in reaching a correct diagnosis due to the similarity to species of Corynebacterium is pointed out.
