description Infections caused by Vibrio alginolyticus is generally disregarded because of the fact that it is an unusual pathogen for humans. In this report, a 57 years old male patient with otitis media has been presented. Intense and pure isolation of V. alginolyticus was achieved from the ear discharge sample. According to the history, it was detected that he was on vacation at Mediterranean coast three weeks ago, thus the transmission of the bacteria is possibly via seawater. The isolate was found sensitive to all of the tested antibiotics, and the patient was treated successfully with the combination of ciprofloxacin and amoxicillin-clavulanate. This case was presented to withdraw attention to V. alginolyticus infections which are very rarely seen, but should be taken into consideration in related cases.
