Bacillus species isolates from cerebrospinal fluid in patients without shunts

Of 849 CSF cultures done at Hartford Hospital, nine were positive for nonanthrax Bacillus species. Differentiation of true nonanthrax Bacillus species infection from contamination requires careful consideration of the clinical findings, the clinical course, and the laboratory data.

description Of 849 CSF cultures done at Hartford Hospital, nine were positive for nonanthrax Bacillus species. Differentiation of true nonanthrax Bacillus species infection from contamination requires careful consideration of the clinical findings, the clinical course, and the laboratory data. In seven patients the nonanthrax Bacillus species represented contamination. In two patients the nonanthrax Bacillus species represented true infection. In one of these infected patients, nonanthrax Bacillus species complicated a cranial gun shot wound. Bacillus cereus meningitis developed in the second patient, a premature infant, following sepsis from a contaminated IV catheter. Nonanthrax Bacillus species, especially B cereus, can be resistant to penicillins and cephalosporins when nonanthrax Bacillus species infections are being treated, susceptibility testing should always be performed.
