  • Title: First case of intra-abdominal infection with Clostridium disporicum.
    Author: Plassart C, Mauvais F, Heurté J, Sautereau J, Legeay C, Bouvet P.
    Journal: Anaerobe; 2013 Feb; 19():77-8. PubMed ID: 23247006.
    Abstract:
    We describe a case of post-operative intra-abdominal infection with Clostridium disporicum, a gram-positive anaerobic rod rarely isolated in clinical specimens. Its typical doubled-spored form, when present, facilitates its recognition. Phenotype-based identification methods used here were not reliable and a 16S rRNA sequence analysis was needed.
