Yokenella regensburgeiis a member in the familyEnterobacteriaceaeand a few cases have been reported in immunocompromised hosts. Herein, we described a case of septicemia in a human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patient in South West China, which is the first reported case ofY. regensburgeiinfection in HIV-infected populations. We then reviewed the literature on all the reported cases ofY. regensburgeiinfection worldwide and presented some common features of them. Our case report and literature review will help increase the knowledge of the bacteriumY. regensburgeiand its clinical implications.

Cryptococcus neoformans (CN) is an encapsulated yeast that causes disseminated and potentially life-threatening in immunocompromised hosts. We present a patient with primary myelofibrosis on ruxolitinib who developed disseminated disease due to CN. The report underscores the importance of suspecting infections with intracellular pathogens in immunosuppressed patients on ruxolitinib.
