title: Robinsoniella peoriensis, originally isolated from swine manure, and early periprosthetic hip infection: Case report and review of the literature.
abstract: We report on the first case of a periprosthetic joint infection with the anaerobic spore-forming Gram-positive rod Robinsoniella peoriensis as the causative agent. The bacterium was first isolated from a swine manure storage pit and has so far rarely been associated with human infections.
