We report a case of bacterial keratitis secondary to an undescribed Bergeyella sp. Bergeyella spp. are not easily cultured, and many reports have identified unculturable isolates through broad-range bacterial polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Observations. A healthy 29-year-old male was attempting to repair an acrylic cannabis water pipe when it shattered and a fragment hit him in the left eye. Two weeks later, he presented with foreign body sensation, scleral injection, and photophobia that were refractory to prolonged corticosteroid therapy. Following a subconjunctival triamcinolone injection, the patient developed a hypopyon and multifocal, midstromal, epithelized corneal infiltrates. Broad-range PCR of the aqueous fluid detected deoxyribonucleic acid closely matching the Bergeyella genus. Empiric treatment directed toward gram-negative bacteria led to the clinical resolution of the inflammation. Conclusions and Importance. This is the first reported case of ocular inflammation secondary to a Bergeyella spp.. As broad-range PCR testing becomes more accessible, we anticipate that additional PCR-positive and culture-negative scenarios will occur.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2023\/3288984","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,5,25]],"date-time":"2023-05-25T19:20:10Z","timestamp":1685042410000},"page":"1-6","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["An Unnamed Human Oral Bergeyella sp. as the Cause of an Unusual Bacterial Keratitis"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2023","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9972-1021","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Redion B.","family":"Petrela","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Norton College of Medicine, State University of New York Upstate Medical University, Syracuse, NY, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0376-1337","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Joshua A.","family":"Lieberman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathology, University of Washington, School of Medicine, Seattle, WA, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3923-5811","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Robert T.","family":"Swan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, SUNY Upstate Medical University, Syracuse, NY, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12879-017-2391-z"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2672.1998.00346.x"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ofid\/ofz134"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JCM.44.4.1475-1483.2006"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JCM.42.1.290-293.2004"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JCM.01206-08"},{"key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JCM.02888-14"},{"key":"8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/nar\/gkn201"},{"key":"9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/JCM.00955-21"},{"key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fmicb.2019.02083"},{"key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9394(14)76916-8"},{"key":"12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/ICO.0b013e318176189e"},{"key":"13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3892\/etm.2021.11060"},{"key":"14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajo.2021.12.002"},{"key":"15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajo.2008.06.009"},{"key":"16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/ICO.0000000000001790"},{"issue":"1","key":"17","first-page":"1","article-title":"Contact lens related Elizabethkingia meningoseptica keratitis- a first Southeast Asean case report & literature review","volume":"2","author":"W.
