title: [Isolation of a strain from the Bataviae pathogenic complex in patient vaccinated against copenhageni, canicola and mozdok].
abstract: A Leptospira strain was isolated from a hemoculture of a patient admitted with suspicion of leptospirosis that had been previously vaccinated. It corresponded to the Bataviae pathogenic complex. This result shows that there exists immunogenic specificity and that other serogroups should be incorporated to the current vaccine.
