ABSTRACT
Bacteremia is a rare complication of Clostridium tetani infection. To our knowledge, there are only two case reports to date of C. tetani bacteremia, both hypothesized to be secondary to a gastrointestinal source. Herein, we report a case of an elderly man with genome sequence-proven C. tetani bacteremia from a possible cutaneous source without neuromuscular symptoms.
