  • Title: Beware of the dog! Septic shock due to Capnocytophaga canimorsus revealed on peripheral blood smear.
    Author: Gosset F, Sarret B, Mortreux S, Moquet O.
    Journal: Ann Biol Clin (Paris); 2019 Dec 01; 77(6):685-686. PubMed ID: 31859646.
    Abstract:
    A blood smear examination led to the diagnosis of severe bacterial infection in a splenectomized patient. The knowledge of a relevant clinical information (recent dog bite) could have led to immediate presumptive identification of the causative agent, Capnocytophaga canimorsus.
