Short CommunicationCutaneous abscess caused by Corynebacterium lactis in a companion dog Many new, emerging and re-emerging diseases of humans are caused by pathogens which originate from animals or products of animal origin. Corynebacterium lactis, a recently described species of the genus Corynebacterium, was first isolated from milk of asymptomatic cows. In the present study a cutaneous abscess caused by C. lactis in a dog was recognized by cytologic and histologic examination in addition to 16S rRNA gene analysis of the microorganism.

Bartholin's Cyst An abscess occurs when a cyst becomes infected. Bartholin's abscesses can be caused by any of a number of bacteria. These include bacterial organisms that cause sexually transmitted diseases such as chlamydia and gonorrhea as well as bacteria normally found in the intestinal tract, such as Escherichia coli.

- Peritonsillar abscesses are most often caused by the group A streptococcus bacteria that also cause strep throat. Sometimes other types of bacteria are also involved. Peritonsillar abscesses usually happen as a complication of tonsillitis, when the infection spreads from a tonsil into the space surrounding it.

What is a brain abscess in children? A brain abscess is a serious and life-threatening condition that needs to be treated right away. This condition may cause problems with how the brain and spinal cord function. The more common causes of a brain abscess in children are viruses, fungi, and bacteria. Bacteria are the most common cause. Bacteria and viruses can infect the brain in 3 ways: 1  Infection is spread from another area of infection in the body, usually from a nearby site. Typically, this might be an ear infection, sinus infection, or dental infection. 2  Infection is spread through the bloodstream from the lung or chest area.

- The most commonly reported bacteria cultured from pilonidal abscesses differ by author. In one study, anaerobic cocci were present 77% of the time; aerobic, 4%; and mixed aerobic and anaerobic, 17%. Other studies quote Staphylococcus aureus, an aerobe, as being the most common bacterial pathogen. Previous.

Overview Bacteria enter through either a dental cavity or a chip or crack in the tooth and spread all the way down to the root. The bacterial infection can cause swelling and inflammation at the tip of the root. These factors may increase your risk of a tooth abscess: Poor dental hygiene. Not taking proper care of your teeth and gums — such as not brushing your teeth twice a day and not flossing — can increase your risk of tooth decay, gum disease, tooth abscess, and other dental and mouth complications.

Normal Parathyroid Gland Function. How Parathyroid Glands Work. 1 When the calcium in our blood goes too low, the parathyroid glands make more PTH. 2  Increased PTH causes the body to put more calcium into the blood.  Increased PTH causes the bones to release their calcium into the blood.

Overview An abscess of the brain is usually the result of a bacterial or fungal infection. The infection will cause your brain to swell from the collection of pus and dead cells that form. A brain abscess can form when fungi, viruses, or bacteria reach the brain through a wound to the head or infection elsewhere in the body. brain abscess can form when fungi, viruses, or bacteria reach the brain through a wound to the head or infection elsewhere in the body.

The Genus Corynebacterium and Other Medically Relevant Coryneform-Like Bacteria Catalase-positive Gram-positive bacilli, commonly called “diphtheroids” or “coryneform” bacteria were historically nearly always dismissed as contaminants when recovered from patients, but increasingly have been implicated as the cause of significant infections.

Propionibacterium acnes Propionibacterium acnes. Propionibacterium acnes is the relatively slow-growing, typically aerotolerant anaerobic, Gram-positive bacterium (rod) linked to the skin condition of acne; it can also cause chronic blepharitis and endophthalmitis, the latter particularly following intraocular surgery.

What are the Causes of Kidney (Renal) Abscess? A renal abscess can be caused by bacteria from an infection that’s gotten to the kidneys. The bacteria can travel through the blood or in urine backing up into the kidney. In the kidney, the bacteria can spread to the kidney tissue. A renal abscess is not a common disease. It often occurs as a result of common problems such as: Kidney inflammation. Stone disease. Urine flowing backwards into the kidney from the bladder (“vesicoureteral reflux”)

Spinal cord abscess A spinal cord abscess is caused by an infection inside the spine. An abscess of the spinal cord itself is very rare. A spinal abscess usually occurs as an epidural abscess. The pus is commonly covered by a lining or membrane that forms around the edges. The pus collection causes pressure on the spinal cord. The infection is usually due to bacteria. Often it is caused by a staphylococcus infection that spreads through the spine. It may be caused by tuberculosis in some areas of the world, but it is not as common today as it was in the past.

- When modern anaerobic culture techniques are used, about 50% of all pyogenic liver abscesses have been found to be caused by anaerobes 7 with positive blood cultures in 54% of these cases. Staphylococcus aureus and group A streptococcus account for 20% or less of cases.iliary disease is now the most common source of pyogenic abscess 4. Liver abscess can also arise from infection of the gall bladder, through the blood stream from infected foci anywhere in the body, and following direct trauma.

Corynebacterium Infections C diphtheriae infection is typically characterized by a local inflammation, usually in the upper respiratory tract, associated with toxin-mediated cardiac and neural disease. Three strains of C diphtheriae are recognized, in decreasing order of virulence: gravis, intermedius, and mitis.nfections with nondiphtherial corynebacteria are being reported more frequently, especially those associated with medical devices such as intravascular catheters, artificial valves, and CNS drainage devices. Moazzez et al (2007) found that 16% of breast abscesses in an urban county hospital were due to diphtheroids.

- A dental abscess begins when bacteria invade a tooth through an area of decay in the tooth (known as dental caries) or through the gums. The bacteria can cause an infection in and around the tooth, and this infection may then spread to other parts of the mouth and, more rarely, into the face or neck. dental abscess is an infection of the head or neck that begins as a tooth infection.
