Title

Intra-Abdominal Abscess and Primary Peritonitis Caused by Streptococcus anginosus

Pages

  0-0

Abstract

 Introduction: The Streptococcus anginosus group of bacteria are low-virulence bacteria existing as commensals in the oral flora and gastrointestinal tracts of humans. S. anginosus may spread to the blood in individuals with poor oral hygiene in cases of oral infections, such as gingivitis and tooth Abscesses, that develop following the loss of mucosal unity. This may lead to infections in the whole body, primarily as brain and liver Abscesses. Case Presentation: A 32-year-old male patient presented with complaints of nausea, vomiting, and diffuse abdominal pain. Diffuse abdominal tenderness and rebound tenderness were detected particularly in the epigastrium and right upper quadrant. Laboratory assessment revealed a leukocyte count of 20, 500/mm3. Free fluid around the liver and heterogeneous areas of Abscess formation in the right lateral gallbladder were revealed on abdominal computed tomography. Diffuse adhesions between the bowel and seropurulent free liquid in the abdomen were detected on surgical exploration, and a sample was taken for cultures. The patient was discharged without complications on the sixth postoperative day and his antibiotic course was completed with 4 weeks of oral treatment. We reviewed the literature for similar cases of disseminated pyogenic infections caused by the S. anginosus group. Conclusions: It should be kept in mind that the oral flora bacterium S. anginosus may cause transient bacteremia and deep-seated organ Abscesses in immunodeficient patients with poor oral hygiene. Such patients with intra-abdominal Abscesses should be treated with antibiotics and surgery.
