“…Therefore, C. ventriculi in feces cannot be used as an indication of impending AGD in NHPs. Quinolone, macrolide, penicillin, and tetracycline are effective antibiotics against C. ventriculi in NHPs and humans 9 . Sudden death without specific prodromal symptoms does occur due to fast progression of clinical steps.…”

“…However, the pathological role of this bacterium is not fully understood. Clostridium perfringens ( C. perfringens ) and C. ventriculi can be present in normal flora in healthy nonhuman primates 8,9 . However, a direct association between increase in the population of these organisms and AGD manifestation has not been determined.…”

Acute gastric dilatation (AGD) is one of the most prevalent and life‐threatening diseases in nonhuman primates worldwide. However, the etiology of this syndrome has not been determined. Recently, sudden death occurred in a 7‐year‐old female cynomolgus monkey with a history of fecal microbiota transplantation using diarrheic stools. The monkey had undergone surgery previously. On necropsy, gastric dilatation and rupture demonstrated a tetrad arrangement on histopathologic examination. On 16S rRNA sequencing, a high population of Clostridium ventriculi was identified in the duodenum adjacent to stomach but not in the colon. This paper is the first report of Clostridium ventriculi infection in a cynomolgus macaque with acute gastric dilatation and rupture.

“…Sarcina spp. organisms are gram-positive aerotolerant anaerobic organisms recognized as zoo pathogens, often responsible for inducing "abdominal bloat" in bovines, primates, and pets [ 4 , 5 , 6 ]. The term zoo pathogens refers to pathogens, which are disease-causing microorganisms like bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, that can be transmitted between animals in a zoo or wildlife setting.…”

“…The susceptibility profiles for Sarcina spp. organisms show efficacy of (fluoro)quinolones, macrolides, penicillins, and tetracyclines despite the type of host [ 6 ]. In the presented case, significant improvement in symptoms and substantial weight gain were observed following disease eradication.…”

Unveiling the Culprit: Sarcina Infection in the Stomach and Its Link to Unexplained Weight Loss

Sarcina species (spp.) infections in humans are relatively rare; however, reported cases have recently increased. We have presented the case of a 56-year-old female with diabetes who presented with bloating, dysphagia, and substantial weight loss, ultimately diagnosed with reactive gastritis secondary to Sarcina spp. infection. Administration of antibiotics and a proton pump inhibitor led to symptom alleviation and weight gain. This case underscores the significance of considering Sarcina spp. infection in patients experiencing unexplained weight loss and nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms, highlighting the importance of promptly identifying and managing these infections to prevent potentially life-threatening complications that are becoming more prevalent in literature.
