Clostridium cadaveris bacteraemia: two cases and review

Rogier P Schade et al. Scand J Infect Dis. 2006.

Abstract

Clostridium cadaveris is a strict anaerobic Gram-positive rod that is the most prominent bacterium during the decay of dead bodies. We present 2 rare cases of bacteraemia with C. cadaveris. The source of both infectious episodes was most probably of gastrointestinal origin.
