Abstract

ABSTRACT Cellulosimicrobium cellulans , formerly known as Oerskovia xanthineolytica , is a rare human pathogen, often in association with a foreign body. A case of pyogenic flexor tenosynovitis associated with C. cellulans in an immunocompetent boy is described, underlining the importance of prompt surgical and microbiologic evaluation.
