Abstract
Five cases in which A. hydrophila was cultured are reported. The organism is found in natural water sources and most isolates have been from diarrheal stools. Our cases suggest that severe Aeromonas infections occur more often in water-associated wounds than previous reports indicate. All isolates were sensitive to chloramphenicol, gentamicin, kanamycin, nalidixic acid, nitrofurantion, sulfonamides and tetracycline. Sensitivity to ampicillin and carbenicillin was absent and it was variable to cephalothin and colistin.
