Abstract

Life Sciences & Biomedicine Science & Technology Urology & Nephrology
Comamonas testosteroni has rarely been implicated as a human pathogen. In general, the outcome of C. testosteroni infections is favorable. We report a case of fatal bacteremia caused by C. testosteroni in a 64-year-old woman on hemodialysis.
