  • Title: Brevundimonas diminuta bacteremia in a man with myelodysplastic syndromes.
    Author: Cao H, Li M, Yang X, Zhang C.
    Journal: Indian J Pathol Microbiol; 2015; 58(3):384-6. PubMed ID: 26275273.
    Abstract:
    Brevundimonas diminuta are ubiquitous in the environment, but are infrequently isolated from clinical samples. Here we report a case of B. diminuta bacteremia in a man with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) at a teaching hospital in China and review the previously reported cases. The organism was confirmed by culture and 16s rRNA sequence analysis with highly sensitivity to broad-spectrum antibiotics. Our report and other cases demonstrated that the optimal therapeutic duration for B. diminuta infections in various situations remains to be established.
