Özet

Human infection by Brevundimonas vesicularis is very rare, especially in children. A 29-week-old neonate is reported who developed early neonatal sepsis owing to B. vesicularis complicated by persistent meningitis and lymphadenopathy. B. vesicularis may be an emerging pathogen in neonatal infection. © W. S. Maney & Son Ltd 2012.
