RESUMEN
Nocardia paucivorans is a rarely cultured bacteria most commonly found in immunocompromised hosts, and rarely, may result in dissemination across multiple organ systems. Infection and subsequent clinical manifestations are often vague and nonspecific, making timely diagnosis difficult. Due to the infrequency of N. paucivorans infection, no consensus treatment has yet been established. We report a case of an immunocompromised patient with disseminated nocardiosis with infective endocarditis and other extrapulmonary involvement.
