Prosthetic Valve Endocarditis Due to Clostridium Limosum: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
2019
American Journal of Infectious Diseases
Clostridium limosum is an anaerobic gram positive rod-shaped bacterium found in soil and can cause infections in a variety of animals. Rarely has this organism caused infections in humans.
