  Vincent's Hospital, Sydney, Australia, with a 48-h history beginning with the sudden onset of severe lower back pain. There was no history of injury or trauma. [jcm.asm.org]

  A 27-year-old man was admitted to the hospital after a 3-week history of low back pain. The onset of pain was abrupt with no identifiable precipitating factor. Spinal motion was limited in all planes and a CT-scan revealed a disk herniation. [antimicrobe.org]

• Low Back Pain

  A 27-year-old man was admitted to the hospital after a 3-week history of low back pain. The onset of pain was abrupt with no identifiable precipitating factor. Spinal motion was limited in all planes and a CT-scan revealed a disk herniation. [antimicrobe.org]

• Flushing

  The PBS–cysteine solution was flushed with N 2 to enhance survival of anaerobic bacteria such as Veillonella. [doi.org]

• Paresis

  His clinical course was complicated by cortical blindness and limb paresis as a result of cerebral embolism. The endocarditis was successfully treated with urgent valve replacement surgery and a prolonged course of metronidazole. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Actinomyces Israelii

  These tongue isolates were unable to coaggregate with most normal members of the subgingival flora such as Actinomyces viscosus, Actinomyces naeslundii, Actinomyces israelii, and Streptococcus sanguis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Polyps

  The patient had a new episode of diarrhea with abdominal pain 10 days after his initial admission, and a colonoscopy revealed multiple several intestinal polyps. These were excised, and the patient slowly improved. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Pleural Effusion

  Chest X-ray and CT-scan revealed no signs of pleural effusion or lung condensation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Initial treatment with ciprofloxacin was associated with treatment failure and poor response. Identification of the organism was essential for the selection of appropriate treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Very little is known about the virulence factors or treatment strategies for this rare pathogen. Penicillin was considered to be the antimicrobial agent of choice, however, high levels of resistance have been reported in some cases. [globalrph.com]

She was reevaluated in the clinic after completion of treatment and repeat blood cultures remained negative. We report the first case of successful treatment of endocarditis due to Veillonella species with once daily ceftriaxone. 1. [hindawi.com]

The aim of this case report is to emphasize that brain biopsy should be considered in patients with encephalitis of unknown etiology. Authors User assignment Assign yourself or invite other person as author. [infona.pl]

Rarely, Veillonella species have been the only etiologic agents identified in serious infections such as meningitis, osteomyelitis, prosthetic joint infection, pleuropulmonary infection, endocarditis, and bacteremia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
