First case of intra-abdominal infection with Clostridium disporicum

Abstract
We describe a case of post-operative intra-abdominal infection with Clostridium disporicum, a gram-positive anaerobic rod rarely isolated in clinical specimens. Its typical doubled-spored form, when present, facilitates its recognition. Phenotype-based identification methods used here were not reliable and a 16S rRNA sequence analysis was needed.
