[Septic pneumonia caused by Bacillus cereus].
The authors describe the case of a 3-year old girl whose septic pneumonia was caused by B. cereus and developed following serial viral and bacterial infections, which produced assumably transient immunoppressed condition. Attention is drawn to the possibility of serious diseases caused by faculative bacteria in certain cases. The increasing pathological significance of bacteria existing in the soil is pointed out and the importance of hemoculture examination is stressed.
