Urosepticemia and fatal endocarditis caused by aerococcus-like organisms
Abstract
Two cases of invasive infections with aerococcus-like organisms (ALO) are presented: an 81-year-old man with fatal endocarditis and a 63-year-old man with urosepticemia. No antigenic relationship was found between ALO and Aerococcus viridans (NCTC 8251) in crossed immunoelectrophoretic assay.
