[Bacteremia caused by Streptococcus salivarius and S. Milleri, and colonic carcinoma].
There is a well-known association between colon carcinoma and bacteraemia with Streptococcus bovis biotype I. There are also associations, less well known, with other streptococci of the viridans group. In three patients, a man of 44, a woman of 53 and one of 52 years old, colorectal carcinomas were diagnosed in association with bacteraemia with S. salivarius, S. milleri, and S. salivarius respectively.
