Bacteremia and Bone Marrow Infection Caused by Moraxella Atlantae in an Elderly Patient with Pneumonia.
The clinical manifestations of Moraxella Atlantae infection were rarely described. Here we reported an elderly pneumonia patient with Moraxella Atlantae infection and the detailed clinical manifestations were firstly described. A bacterial automatic identification system in combination with phenotypic methods can be routinely used to identify this pathogen. If possible, 16S rDNA gene sequencing is also an alternative and effective method.
