Pseudomonas luteola cutaneous abscess and bacteraemia in a previously healthy man.
Pseudomonas luteola is uncommonly implicated in clinical infections, but it constitutes a significant nosocomial pathogen causing mainly infections associated with foreign material. This report describes an unusual case of a Pseudomonas luteola strain that infected and caused cutaneous abscess and bacteraemia in a previously healthy man.

Fusobacterium necrophorum septicemia following Epstein-Barr virus infectious mononucleosis.
We report herein a case of a 20-year-old previously healthy man who presented, 25 days after the onset of clinically and serologically confirmed Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infectious mononucleosis, Fusobacterium necrophorum septicemia. The diagnosis of postanginal septicemia was confirmed by repeated demonstration of fusiform, obligate anaerobic, Gram-negative bacilli in anaerobic blood cultures, identified as F. necrophorum 15 days after admission. This case report aims at underlining the need of taking into consideration the possibility of severe Fusobacterium septicemia in previously healthy patients following EBV infectious mononucleosis in order to prevent increased mortality and morbidity.

Stenotrophomonas maltophilia: a serious and rare complication in patients suffering from burns.
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is rarely implicated in clinical infections but it constitutes a significant nosocomial pathogen, especially in immunocompromised patients. This report describes the first case of a generalised infection caused by S. maltophilia that included bacteremia, wound and respiratory tract infection in a patient suffering from burns. Given the emergence of S. maltophilia nosocomial infections, especially in patients with burns, isolation of the bacterium from blood cultures should prompt the commencement of adequate antibiotic treatment.
