pubmed-article:7884227 | pubmed:abstractText | We describe a case of recurrent Stomatococcus mucilaginosus lower respiratory tract infection in a patient with AIDS. Apart from S. mucilaginosus no other pathogens were found to account for infection. There was a rapid response to rifampicin, the organism being resistant to penicillin, co-trimoxazole and ciprofloxacin. Infections caused by this organism are increasingly described, but there are few reports of lower respiratory tract infection. | lld:pubmed |
