Gemella haemolysans spondylodiscitis: a report of two cases

T S Rajagopal et al. J Bone Joint Surg Br. 2012 Jun.

Abstract

We report on two cases of infective spondylodiscitis caused by Gemella haemolysans in otherwise healthy patients. This organism has only rarely been identified as a cause of bone and joint infection, with only two previous reports of infective spondylodiscitis. We describe the clinical features, investigations and treatment options.
