CABRALES, Heriberto José et al. Lactococcus garvieae bloodstream infections: first case in Colombia. Infect. [online]. 2020, vol.24, n.3, pp.193-195. ISSN 0123-9392.  https://doi.org/10.22354/in.v24i3.865.

Lactococcus garvieae is an unusual cause of bloodstreams infections. Currently, there are no diagnostic and therapeutic guides available to treat infections caused by these organisms. Based on a case report, we provide a literature review on bloodstreams caused by L. garvieae and highlighted the challenges for diagnose and treatment and direct implications for its management. We report the first case of bloodstream infections due to Lactococcus garvieae in Colombia.
