AbstractWe report a case of a chronic mesotympanic otitis media with a smelly purulent secretion from both ears and recurrent otalgia over the last five years in a six-year-old girl after swimming in the German Baltic Sea. Besides Staphylococcus aureus a non-O1/non-O139 Vibrio cholerae strain could be isolated from patient samples. An antibiotic therapy with ciprofloxacin and ceftriaxone was administered followed by atticotomy combined with tympanoplasty. We conclude that V. cholerae should not be overlooked as a differential diagnosis to otitis infections, especially when patients present with extra-intestinal infections after contact with brackish- or saltwater aquatic environments.

The review of the literature on epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment methods for chronic familial benign pemphigus Gougerot-Haley-Haley, as well as a clinical case of a patient with this disease with family history are presented. The manifestation of the disease occurred at the age of 24, after childbirth. Later there were numerous relapses. Remission was quickly achieved after treatment with antibiotics and oxygen-ozone therapy. In recent years, there has been an increase in the frequency of exacerbations of the disease, and a decrease in treatment effectiveness.

Pocket Infection

Mycobacterium peregrinum is a rapidly growing mycobacterium (RGM), subspecies of Mycobacterium fortuitum complex, which can cause infections in the skin, surgical sites, and central lines. It has also been associated with implantable devices such as cardiac devices. Our objective is to present an atypical clinical case of M. peregrinum infection associated with a cardiac device, review the published literature, and highlight the importance of this type of RGM infection to enhance their therapeutic success. Only two other cases have been reported of M. peregrinum infection associated with cardiac devices. Diagnosis and treatment of Mycobacterium peregrinum infection can be challenging, and the literature is scarce. Better understanding and further research should be conducted regarding this infection.

We report a case of prostatic abscess in a 52 year old male with a history of diabetes mellitus. The abscess was treated successfully with surgical drainage by transurethral unroofing of the cavity of the abscess. The use of transrectal ultrasound is valuable in the diagnosis, treatment and follow up of the abscess, while drainage is usually necessary for the treatment, which can be done by transrectal, transperineal and transurethral route.

Spondylodiscitis caused byFusobacteriumspecies is rare. Most cases of spontaneous spondylodiscitis are caused byStaphylococcus aureusand most postoperative cases are caused byStaphylococcus aureusor coagulase-negative staphylococci.Escherichia coliis the most common Gram-negative organism causing spondylodiscitis.Fusobacteriumspecies are unusual causes for anaerobic spondylodiscitis. We report the case of a patient with spontaneous L2-L3 spondylodiscitis, vertebral osteomyelitis, and epidural abscess caused byFusobacteriumspecies and review the literature for patients withFusobacteriumspondylodiscitis.
