    Author: Merino D, Saavedra J, Pujol E, Vega D, Colchero J, Boto A, Pascual L.
    Journal: Clin Infect Dis; 1994 Aug; 19(2):320-2. PubMed ID: 7986906.
    Abstract:
    A case of septic arthritis due to Haemophilus aphrophilus is presented. This organism has rarely been reported as a cause of bone or joint infections. We believe this is the third reported case of septic arthritis caused by this microorganism. We review the clinical and bacteriologic findings and the previously reported cases of infection caused by H. aphrophilus. Treatment with ceftriaxone was followed by full recovery without sequelae.
