Veillonella parvula bacteremia without an underlying source

RG Fisher and MR Denison
Department of Pediatric Infectious Diseases, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee 37253, USA.

Veillonella parvula is an anaerobic gram-negative coccus that is part of the normal human flora. It has rarely been identified as a pathogen in humans, and the most frequently reported infection caused by V. parvula is osteomyelitis. We report a case of bacteremia unrelated to a central venous catheter and without an underlying source of infection.
