Title: Molecular detection of Campylobacter jejuni as a cause of culture-negative spondylodiscitis. Author: Tappe D, Schulze MH, Oesterlein A, Abele-Horn M, Baron S, Durchholz D, Langen HJ, Jany B, Schoen C. Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2012 Apr; 50(4):1499-500. PubMed ID: 22259199. Abstract: Spondylodiscitis caused by Campylobacter species is a rare disease which is most often caused by Campylobacter fetus. We report a case of culture-negative spondylodiscitis and a psoas abscess due to Campylobacter jejuni in a 68-year-old woman, as revealed by 16S rRNA gene and Campylobacter-specific PCRs from biopsied tissue.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
