Aeromonas popoffii urinary tract infection

Huy Thong Hua et al. J Clin Microbiol. 2004 Nov.

Abstract

Aeromonas popoffii is a recently described species isolated mainly from freshwater. An isolate of Aeromonas popoffii was found to be responsible for a urinary tract infection in a 13-year-old boy suffering from spina bifida with enterocystoplasty. This is the first reported case of human infection attributed to this species.
