Abstract
Neisseria animaloris, köpek ve kedi ağız boşluklarının bir kommensali olarak kabul edilen, nadir görülen bir zoonotik patojendir. Hayvanlarda ve nadiren insanlarda enfeksiyonlara neden olabilir, genellikle ısırma travması sonrası yara enfeksiyonlarına neden olabilir. Ancak son zamanlarda birçok farklı insan enfeksiyonunda da etken olduğu bildirilmiştir. Bunun nedeni, tanımlama olanaklarının artması olabilir. Bu yazıda hayvan ısırığı ve teması olmayan, yoğun bakım ünitesinde yatırılan N. animaloris pnömonisi olan 77 yaşında erkek hasta sunuldu. Bu olgu, ulaşılabilen literatürde N. animaloris'e bağlı gelişen ventilatör ilişkili pnömoninin ilk olgudur.

Abstract
Neisseria animaloris is a rare zoonotic pathogen, considered to be a commensal of the canine and feline oral cavities. It is able to cause infections in animals and rarely in humans, usually wound infections after a biting trauma. However, recently it has been reported that it is also a factor in many different human infections. This may be because of the increase in identification possibilities. In this report, we presented a 77-year-old male patient with N. animaloris pneumonia, hospitalized in the intensive care unit, without a history of an animal bite or contact. This is the first case of ventilator-associated pneumonia caused by N. animaloris in the available literature.
