Dear Editor;
Eikenella corrodens is found in oral, gastrointestinal
and genitourinary normal flora. Eikenella species
have been shown to cause serious human infections
such as head-neck infection, pulmonary infection,
arthritis, endocarditis, intraabdominal infection,
pancreatic abscesses and infection after human bite
wounds. Although injuries caused by human bites
are less than those caused by animal bites, such
injuries have higher risk for infection and complication
development. The most common clinical case
observed after human bites is infections. If the infection
that may appear is not treated, it may cause
amputation and severe complications, which may
result with death. One of the most common agents
that cause these infections is E. corrodens [1-3]. We
reported a rarely case of E. corrodens infection after
human bite. J Microbiol Infect Dis 2016;6(1): 36-37
