Pantoea dispersa bacteremia in an immunocompetent patient : a case report and review of the literature
BACKGROUND: Pantoea is a Gram-negative, non-encapsulated, non-spore-forming, ubiquitous straight rod which can be isolated from geographical and ecological sources such as plant surfaces, buckwheat seeds, human feces, and the environment. The genus Pantoea is a rare pathogen in a clinical setting, and is divided into 20 different species such as Pantoea agglomerans, Pantoea ananatis, Pantoea deleyi, Pantoea dispersa, Pantoea septica, Pantoea stewartii or Pantoea rwandensis. Pantoea dispersa has been reported to cause other infections, including respiratory infections, neonatal sepsis, and bloodstream infections. We report a case of Pantoea dispersa bacteremia caused by acute cholangitis. This is the first case report of Pantoea dispersa bacteremia caused by acute cholangitis as far as we had searched.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 38-year-old Japanese woman suffered from acute cholangitis; a blood culture showed that Gram-negative rod was positive. The treatment was successful with intravenously administered meropenem, and it was switched to orally administered levofloxacin according to microbiological susceptibility. The organism was identified as Pantoea dispersa by both genetic investigation by 16S ribosomal RNA and additional biochemical tests. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report of Pantoea dispersa bacteremia caused by acute cholangitis.
CONCLUSION: The epidemiology and clinical features of Pantoea dispersa are still unknown. More cases of infections caused by Pantoea dispersa might be revealed with advancing technical methods, such as matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry or 16S ribosomal RNA analysis. Physicians must know that a variety of infections caused by Pantoea dispersa could occur in immunocompromised as well as immunocompetent patients.
