Abstract
A 58-year-old black man presented with left wrist pain, septicemia, and a chest roentgenographic pattern compatible with septic embolization. Yersinia enterocolitica was grown from joint fluid, blood, and sputum. This unusual constellation of clinical manifestations due to an organism rarely reportcd as the cause of human disease warrants reporting the case.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
