  • Title: Clostridium tertium: 3 case reports.
    Author: Leegaard TM, Sandven P, Gaustad P.
    Journal: Scand J Infect Dis; 2005; 37(3):230-2. PubMed ID: 15849058.
    Abstract:
    Clostridium tertium is infrequently isolated from blood in patients with underlying diseases. Laboratory diagnosis is often delayed because Clostridium tertium is aerotolerant and resistant to metronidazole. Clinically it is a problem because it is commonly resistant to metronidazole, clindamycin and cephalosporins. We present 3 cases illustrating these characteristics.
