The first UK isolate of 'Bordetella ansorpii' from an immunocompromised patient.
What is believed to be the first clinical isolate of 'Bordetella ansorpii' in the UK from an immunocompromised patient is described. The only previously documented isolation of 'B. ansorpii' was following the initial culture of a single strain from an epidermal cyst of a patient in Korea.
