Abstract
Open AccessKerstersia gyiorum (K. gyiorum) had been reported as a rare cause of human infections. In this study, we isolated an uncommon strain of K. gyiorum from swab specimens of a male patient with cerebral infarction. The identification was performed using VITEK MS in the RUO (Research Use Only) mode and 16s rRNA gene sequencing. We hereby report a case of chronic osteomyelitis caused by K. gyiorum in a patient with cerebral infarction and left-sided limb hemiplegia in China.
