Aeromonads are rarely associated with human intestinal and extra-intestinal diseases and syndromes, ranging from relatively mild illnesses such as acute gastroenteritis to life-threatening conditions, including septicemia, necrotizing fasciitis, and myonecrosis. Among the aeromonas species known to cause human infection, Aeromonas caviae has been associated with septicemia and only one reported case of human soft tissue infection. Most of the infections due to aeromonas occur in immunocompromised patients. Herein we describe a successfully treated case of post-traumatic skin and soft-tissue infections due to A. caviae in an otherwise immunocompetent individual.

“…The gastroenteritis caused by Aeromonas spp. vary from acute watery diarrhea, dysentery-like and bloody to chronic diarrhea, affecting mainly children and elderly, being the severity of the disease directly related to virulence factors of the strain and the immune status of the patient (4,5,18). Belonging to the family Aeromonadacea, Aeromonas spp.…”
