  • Title: Isolation of Abiotrophia adiacens from a brain abscess which developed in a patient after neurosurgery.
    Author: Biermann C, Fries G, Jehnichen P, Bhakdi S, Husmann M.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1999 Mar; 37(3):769-71. PubMed ID: 9986849.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a patient who developed a large brain abscess after neurosurgery. Cerebrospinal fluid from the abscess drainage yielded Abiotrophia adiacens-specific PCR products and microorganisms that were identified by conventional microbiological methods and by 16S ribosomal DNA analysis as Abiotrophia adiacens, which was formerly classified as a member of nutritionally variant streptococci.
