Osteomyelitis and possible endocarditis secondary to Lactococcus garvieae: a first case report
Abstract
Although osteomyelitis is commonly caused by staphylococcal infection, the first case of a lumbar osteomyelitis secondary to Lactococcus garvieae is reported. The case was complicated by possible endocarditis of an aortic valve prosthesis.
