These microorganisms are associated with mucosal surface, present in food-related habitats including plant, wine, milk, and meat environments. In humans, evidence of Carnobacterium spp., about the disease spectrum remains unknown. Current work is about a 25-year-old male, was admitted to the emergency room for transmetacarpal traumatic amputation of his left hand caused by a meat grinder. In deep soft tissue samples obtained from surgery, Carnobacterium divergens was isolated. He was treated with piperacillin-tazobactam and was switched to amoxicillin-clavulanate for five more days with clinical success. Written informed consent was obtained from the participating patient for publication of this case report and any accompanying images. Therefore, the pathogenic role of Carnobacterium spp., remains unknown and classically is not considered pathogenic to humans. However, in previous cases where was associated with infection, the described outcomes were good. The misidentification showed that conventional identification methods are not accurate.]]></p></abstract>

Estos microorganismos están asociados a la superficie de las mucosas, presentes en hábitats relacionados con los alimentos, incluidos los entornos de las plantas, vino, leche y carne. En humanos, la evidencia de Carnobacterium spp, sobre el espectro de la enfermedad sigue siendo desconocida. El presente trabajo se trata de un varón de 25 años ingresó en urgencias por amputación traumática transmetacarpiana de la mano izquierda causada por una picadora de carne. En muestras profundas de tejidos blandos obtenidas en la cirugía, se aisló Carnobacterium divergens. Fue tratado con piperacilinatazobactam y se le cambió a amoxicilina-clavulánico durante cinco días más con éxito clínico. Se obtuvo el consentimiento informado por escrito del paciente participante para la publicación de este informe de caso y de las imágenes que lo acompañan. Por lo tanto, el rol de Carnobacterium spp., permanece incierto y clásicamente no se considera patógeno para el ser humano. Sin embargo, en casos anteriores en los que se asoció a infección, los decensales clinicos no se asociaron a morbilidad o mortalidad. La identificación errónea demostró que los métodos convencionales de identificación no son precisos.]]></p></abstract>
