    Author: Parija SC, Kaliaperumal V, Kumar SV, Sujatha S, Babu V, Balu V.
    Journal: BMC Infect Dis; 2005 Sep 06; 5():68. PubMed ID: 16144543.
    Abstract:
    Arcanobacterium haemolyticum has an established role in the etiology of human pharyngitis. There are increasing reports of systemic infections caused by this organism. From India, we report the first case of Arcanobacterium haemolyticum causing pyothorax in an immunocompetent adolescent male patient. The probable mode of infection is also discussed. The role of A. hemolyticum as an animal pathogen needs further study.
