title: A Case of Segniliparus rugosus Pulmonary Infection in an Immunocompetent Patient with Non-cystic Fibrosis.
abstract: Segniliparus species is a novel genus that is reported to be the new emerging respiratory pathogens. Here, we report a very rare case of S. rugosus pulmonary infection in an immunocompetent patient with non-cystic fibrosis. The organism was identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The patient was successfully treated with antibiotics.
