Praxis (Bern 1994). 2018 Sep;107(19):1007-1012 Authors: Rifaat M, Depmeier C, Jeger V, Schneemann M, Anagnostopoulos A Abstract CME: Fusobacterium nucleatum/naviforme - a Rare but Serious Cause for Pyogenic Liver Abscesses Abstract. Pyogenic liver abscesses belong to the most common abdominal infections. Beside the most common pathogens, also rare forms like Fusobacteria, which can also be part of the natural oropharyngeal and enteral microbiome, may be considered to cause severe forms of abscesses of the liver. Since they may be more difficult to detect, they could become a challenge during diagnosis and therapy. PMID: 30227799 [PubMed - in process]
