Arteriovenous Graft Infection Due to Granulicatella adiacens.

Abstract

Granulicatella adiacens is a gram-positive coccus that is normally found in the human oral cavity and gastrointestinal and urogenital tracts but can rarely cause infection. When it does cause infection, Granulicatella adiacens has been most associated with bacteremia and endovascular infection, but to our knowledge, there are no previously documented cases of arteriovenous graft (AVG) infection. We present a case of Granulicatella adiacens bacteremia with associated AVG infection.
