First reported case of Robinsoniella peoriensis pyometra and bloodstream infection : A case report and review of the literature

Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved..

We report on a 47-year-old woman with jejunal adenocarcinoma and concurrent endometrial cancer, admitted with sepsis. Uterine fluid and blood cultures were positive for Robinsoniella peoriensis. This is the first case report of Robinsoniella peoriensis in Canada. We encourage clinicians to publish their experience treating gynecologic infections caused by Robinsoniella peoriensis. Failure to recognize this pathogen as causative for pyometra, may result in insufficient antimicrobial treatment, and death.
