Dolosigranulum pigrum: Predicting Severity of Infection

In this report, we describe a case of a 61-year-old male patient who had the bacterium growing in a blood culture. It was susceptible to ampicillin, ceftriaxone, levofloxacin, and vancomycin but was intermediately resistant to erythromycin. The patient did not have a negative outcome as a consequence of this bacterium, which retrospectively could have been predicted based on the epidemiological data within the patient's profile.
