Abstract

A 55-year-old female patient with malignant lymphoma after induction chemotherapy developed fever. Blood culture yielded an organism biochemically identified as representing spp., but molecular identification (16S rRNA gene sequencing) later identified it as representing . This is the first report, to the best of our knowledge, of being isolated from a human sample.
