A Case of Trueperella bernardiae Bacteremia due to a PICC-Associated Infection in a Paraplegic Patient.

Trueperella bernardiae is a Gram-positive bacterium known to cause a wide variety of opportunistic infections in humans. We report a novel case of T. bernardiae bacteremia in a paraplegic patient due to a peripherally inserted central catheter- (PICC-) associated infection that was treated successfully with piperacillin/tazobactam.

We report a novel case of M. odoratimimus bacteremia in a paraplegic patient with an extensive medical history likely due to a tunneled dialysis catheter infection that was successfully treated with levofloxacin.
