Bilophila wadsworthiain Brain Abscess: Case Report

Bilophila wadsworthiaClinical Isolates Compared by Polymerase Chain Reaction Fingerprinting

“…All isolates' PCR fingerprint profiles, with use of either the T3B or M13 core primer, shared some major and minor bands. However, differences in additional major and minor bands distinguished each of the additional isolates, suggesting that there are different subgroups of B. wadsworthia.Bilophila wadsworthia, a recently described obligately anteatoma (R. M. Alden isolate [RMA] 8070) and (2) pus from aerobic, gram-negative rod originally isolated from perforated a cerebellar brain abscess (RMA 8068) in the same patient, and gangrenous appendicitis [1], has also been isolated from who had a history of chronic otitis media [6]. Bacteroides a variety of other clinical specimens [2 -4].…”

“…That the retroperitoneal space of a patient with paraproctitis, a ganpreliminary study indicated that molecular techniques can progrenous scrotum, and necrotizing fasciitis (RMA 7355), (2) the vide a rapid means for identification of this organism. necrotic tissue of a patient with gangrenous appendicitis and In this study, a PCR fingerprinting technique was used to phlegmon in the retroperitoneum and femoral area (RMA ascertain if two B. wadsworthia isolates recovered from a right-8066), and (3) the necrotic tissue of a patient with perforation ear cholesteatoma and brain abscess of the same patient [6] of the sigma by a foreign body, complicated by phlegmon and originated from the same clone. The results were compared necrotic fasciitis of the abdominal wall (RMA 8069).…”

A Case Report of Cerebellar Abscess Caused by <i>Bacteroides </i><i>f</i><i>ragilis</i>

“…Marina et al [7] isolated Bilophila wadsworthia, Bacteroides fragilis, Prevotellaoris, Prevotella buccae and Peptostreptococcus anaerobius in the brain abscess. They reported that craniotomy was performed, the abscess was excised, penicillin and metronidazole treatment was initiated, and the patient healed as a result of treatment.…”
