  • Title: Human infective endocarditis caused by Streptococcus suis serotype 2.
    Author: Heidt MC, Mohamed W, Hain T, Vogt PR, Chakraborty T, Domann E.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2005 Sep; 43(9):4898-901. PubMed ID: 16145171.
    Abstract:
    Human infective endocarditis due to Streptococcus suis occurs infrequently. The case of a 43-year-old male who sustained life-threatening infective endocarditis is reported. Since growth of S. suis on commonly used sheep blood agar plates resembles viridans streptococci, diagnosis of S. suis constitutes a diagnostic pitfall. Identification was accomplished by using molecular methods.
