Abstract
Fastidiosipila sanguinis is a Gram-positive anaerobic coccus. We report the first case of osteitis implicating this species. The strain was accurately identified by 16S rRNA sequence analysis, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) identification having failed. The reservoir remained unclear; an endogenous origin is suspected. Copyright © 2014, American Society for Microbiology. All Rights Reserved.
