  • Title: Neonatal Conjunctivitis Caused by Neisseria cinerea: A Case of Mistaken Identity.
    Author: Fiorito TM, Noor A, Silletti R, Krilov LR.
    Journal: J Pediatric Infect Dis Soc; 2019 Nov 06; 8(5):478-480. PubMed ID: 30462276.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of a 3-day-old boy with Neisseria cinerea conjunctivitis, originally misidentified as Neisseria gonorrhoeae conjunctivitis. Neonates are at increased risk for disseminated gonococcal infection, and physicians should be cognizant of N cinerea and its potential to be mistaken for N gonorrhoeae.
