摘要：

We report a case of prosthetic hip-joint infection with Streptococcus agalactiae (Lancefield group B streptococcus). The infection recurred after 3 months' treatment with amoxycillin. On further investigation, the isolate was found to be amoxycillintolerant. Addition of gentamicin abolished tolerance in vitro and the patient has remained asymptomatic since receiving a 10-day course of amoxycillin and gentamicin followed by amoxycillin alone. © 1992 The British Society for the Study of Infection.
