Early identification of the causative agent and precision medicine will greatly reduce the suffering of patients. At present, the main pathogenic bacteria that cause spinal infection are Staphylococcus aureus , Streptococcus, Pneumococcus, Escherichia coli , and Klebsiella. There are no reports of spinal infection caused by Pseudomonas fluorescens .<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>CASE SUMMARY<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>We report a 32-year-old female patient with spinal infection. She presented with flank pain, initially thought to be bone metastases or bone tuberculosis, and had a family background of tumors. Her clinical features and changes in imaging and laboratory tests led to the suspicion of thoracic spine infection. Histopathology of the lesion showed inflammation, tissue culture of the lesion was negative several times, and the possible pathogen - Pseudomonas fluorescens  was found after gene sequencing of the lesion. The patient recovered completely after a full course of antibiotic treatment.<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>CONCLUSION<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>This report increases the range of pathogens involved in spinal infections, highlights the unique advantages of gene sequencing technology in difficult-to-diagnose diseases, and validates conservative treatment with a full course of antibiotics for spinal infections without complications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.12998\/wjcc.v12.i12.2099","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,16]],"date-time":"2024-04-16T05:39:25Z","timestamp":1713245965000},"page":"2099-2108","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Thoracic spine infection caused by <i>Pseudomonas fluorescens<\/i>: A case report and review of literature"],"prefix":"10.12998","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Liang","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bao-Hua","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jin-Feng","family":"Cao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Li-Jin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ling-Ling","family":"Guo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2060","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/2018.10.FOCUS18460"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00701-018-3467-2"},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3928\/01477447-20120919-11"},{"key":"B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jocn.2014.12.028"},{"key":"B5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.21037\/jss.2016.08.04"},{"key":"B6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00247-009-1406-3"},{"key":"B7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00264-011-1440-2"},{"key":"B8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/2014.6.FOCUS14143"},{"key":"B9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1308\/rcsann.2013.95.8.604"},{"key":"B10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.clinimag.2018.02.009"},{"key":"B11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.23736\/S0390-5616.16.03302-6"},{"key":"B12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.13004\/kjnt.2019.15.e19"},{"key":"B13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00590-012-1081-1"},{"key":"B14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12891-019-2949-6"},{"key":"B15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.wneu.2018.12.151"},{"key":"B16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/BRS.0000000000003393"},{"key":"B17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ajem.2019.05.025"},{"key":"B18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3340\/jkns.2015.58.3.271"},{"key":"B19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MNM.0b013e328361cd0e"},{"key":"B20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s10096-018-3197-7"},{"key":"B21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cmi.2015.12.028"},{"key":"B22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00586-013-2850-1"},{"key":"B23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3969\/j.issn.1004-406X.2017.03.16"},{"key":"B24","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eimc.2019.09.005"},{"key":"B25","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.13929\/j.1003-3289.201810139"},{"key":"B26","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3969\/j.issn.1004-406X.2013.06.06"},{"key":"B27","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/2325957412473778"},{"key":"B28","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12104\/j.issn.1674-4748.2019.11.033"},{"key":"B29","unstructured":"Lei PJ, Li DW, Ma YZ, Wang TT.
