摘要
Serratia odorifera from the time of its discovery in the 1970's had been considered a common colonizer of the skin with little pathogenic potential. Cases of human infections caused by S. odorifera are relatively rare. To date, very few cases have been reported describing primarily bloodstream and urinary tract infections. We describe a patient who developed endocarditis due to S. odorifera confirmed with a transesophageal echocardiogram. The patient was treated with six weeks of antibiotics with uneventful recovery. After a thorough review of published literature, we concluded that this is the first case of endocarditis caused by S. odorifera reported in English literature.
