Multiple Pyogenic Liver Abscesses Caused by Eggerthella lenta Treated with Ertapenem : A Case Report

الملخص EN

Anaerobic gram-positive bacilli can occasionally be implicated in infections but are difficult to identify in culture by conventional biochemical methods.

We report a case of liver abscesses caused by Eggerthella lenta, identified via 16S rRNA sequencing in a previously healthy patient, successfully treated with percutaneous drainage and ertapenem.
