“…Isolates of Chromobacterium violaceum have been detected in drinking water springs, pasteurized milk samples from a dairy plant, and in samples of tap water from operation theatres. In the latter case, water has been implicated in the nosocomial transmission of Chromobacterium violaceum with outbreak potential and public health issues [10,[17][18][19].…”

Mycoplasma pneumoniae is a common atypical respiratory pathogen causing community-acquired pneumonia in children. Co-infection with other respiratory viruses is common in pediatric patients but super-infection with bacteria other than Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae is rare. The first case of Chromobacterium violaceum infection incubated during and manifested after pneumonia caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae in a 12-month old girl without any known history of immunodeficiency is here reported. The patient developed fever with redness and swelling over the middle phalanx of the right hand index finger which progressed to the formation of skin abscess. Following a course of intravenous meropenem and surgical drainage of the skin abscess, the patient fully recovered and was discharged.

“…In the last few years, there have been reports of clinical infection (Karthik et al, 2012) and environmental isolation of C. violaceum from different parts of India including the state of Kerala (Ambily et al, 2014). Infection is reported to be severe in malnourished and immunocompromised patients (Rashid et al, 2013).…”
