Abstract

ABSTRACT We report a case of Finegoldia magna (formerly known as Peptostreptococcus magnus ) mediastinitis following coronary artery bypass in a 50-year-old patient. Even if staphylococci remain the main causative organism of postoperative mediastinitis, the responsibility of anaerobic bacteria must be considered in cases of fever and sternal drainage with negative blood cultures.
