Isolation of Campylobacter fetus from blood cultures
Medical Journal of Australia(1981)
Abstract
Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus, previously known as Campylobacter fetus subsp. intestinalis, was isolated from two blood cultures taken from a 45-year-old man admitted with gastrointestinal symptoms and a history of lymphocytic lymphoma. Campylobacters are not common blood culture isolates but can be a cause of bacteraemia and septicaemia especially in the compromised host. The isolation and identification of Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus by standard blood culture techniques is described and a literature review of 112 cases of Campylobacter bacteraemia is presented.
