  • Title: A case of Ochrobactrum anthropi-induced septic shock and infective endocarditis.
    Author: Ashraf F.
    Journal: R I Med J (2013); 2016 Jul 01; 99(7):27-8. PubMed ID: 27379356.
    Abstract:
    Ochrobactrum anthropi is a gram-negative rod of low virulence. Infections due to this organism are uncommon; however in immunocompromised hosts it can cause severe infections. Among the many infections it can cause, infective endocarditis is very rare. Even rarer is infective endocarditis of the native valves, as Ochrobactrum antropi affects damaged or prosthetic valves almost exclusively. This case describes native valve endocarditis due to Ochrobactrum anthropi. [Full article available at http://rimed.org/rimedicaljournal-2016-07.asp, free with no login].
