Abstract

We report a case of pyomyositis of the paraspinal neck muscles caused by two coagulase-negative staphylococci:Staphylococcus capitisandStaphylococcus saccharolyticus.Inflammation in the spermatic cords was an additional feature of this infection. Treatment with six weeks of first-generation cephalosporin therapy resulted in complete clinical and radiological resolution.
