title: [Aeromonas spp. as pathogens in human infections: diagnosis and clinical significance].
abstract: Aeromonads have been described as causative agents in a wide variety of infections in immunosuppressed as well as in immunocompetent patients. It is still controversial whether or not some or all three currently recognized species have to be considered as enteropathogenic. Clinical and epidemiological data are incomplete and contradictory although laboratory diagnosis does not cause real problems.
