Community-Acquired Staphylococcus argenteus Sequence Type 2250 Bone and Joint Infection, France, 2017

摘要

We report a rare case of Staphylococcus argenteus bone and joint infection in a 9-year-old boy in France. His finger arthritis was complicated by osteitis 5 weeks later, which resulted in a secondary intervention. This case indicates the virulence of S. argenteus , an emerging pathogen whose clinical effects are poorly described.
