  • Recurrent port infection due to Chryseobacterium indologenes.
    The Eurasian Journal of Medicine, 2013
    Co-Authors: Sibel Islak Mutcali, Mucahit Yemisen, Hikmet Soylu, Ilker Inanc Balkan, Bilgul Mete, Nese Saltoglu
    Abstract:

    Infections due to Chryseobacterium indologenes (C. indologenes) are rare and generally associated with immunosupression and indwelling catheters. We report a recurrent port infection caused by C. indologenes. In the first bacteremia episode we did not remove the port and only applied antibiotherapy. However, the patient presented with bacteremia with the same bacteria and successfully treated with antibiotherapy and removal of the port.

  • Chryseobacterium indologenes Associated Urinary Tract Infection – A Case Report
    British Biomedical Bulletin, 2015
    Co-Authors: V. Solanke, S. Verma, G. Nataraj, P. Mehta
    Abstract:

    Introduction: Chryseobacterium indologenes, a non-fermentative Gram negative bacillus, is an uncommon pathogen in humans. It causes a variety of invasive infections especially in hospitalized patients with severe underlying disease and with indwelling devices. Case Report: A 21 year old, primigravida with 39.6 weeks of gestation, underwent induced labour with vaccum assisted delivery for intrauterine foetal death. She was catheterized for 24 hrs, after which she developed fever spike. The patient was started on Ciprofloxacin empirically. Urine culture was positive for multidrug resistant C. indologenes . The strain was sensitive only to Tetracycline, Tigecycline and Co-trimoxazole. The antibiotic was changed to Tigecycline to which she responded clinically. Conclusion: Chryseobacterium indologenes , though a rare pathogen has gained importance because of its multidrug resistant nature. Appropriate management warrants accurate identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing.

  • Chryseobacterium indologenes subcutaneous port related bacteremia in a liver transplant patient
    Transplant Infectious Disease, 2012
    Co-Authors: S Shah, Uzma N Sarwar, E A King
    Abstract:

    : Chryseobacterium indologenes is a rare cause of infection in select immunosuppressed hosts. Most prior reports are from Taiwan, in patients with diabetes mellitus or malignancies. Infections caused by C. indologenes are generally associated with indwelling devices, and the organism may be resistant to many commonly utilized broad-spectrum antibiotics. We report the first case, to our knowledge, of C. indologenes subcutaneous port-related bacteremia in a liver transplant recipient. The isolates were resistant to antibiotics previously reported as active, and device removal was required for treatment success.
