  • Title: Streptococcus milleri liver abscess presenting as fulminant pneumonia.
    Author: Henderson A, Wall D.
    Journal: Aust N Z J Surg; 1993 Mar; 63(3):237-40. PubMed ID: 8311805.
    Abstract:
    A case of a young man who developed a Streptococcus milleri liver abscess secondary to an occult colonic foreign body, which presented as fulminant community acquired pneumonia, is reported. The isolation of Streptococcus milleri, a normal member of the gastrointestinal flora, from an abscess, blood or sputum should prompt a search for pathology, foreign bodies or silent perforation in the gastrointestinal tract.
