Abstract
An organism similar to EF-4, a member of the unclassified group of unusual gram-negative bacilli of Elizabeth O. King, was isolated from the blood of a 65-year-old female with previously diagnosed carcinoid of the liver. We believe this to be the first report of systemic infection with this organism.Keywords
