Our report presents a rare case of Y. regensburgei infection in an immunocompetent individual.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title><jats:p>In September 2020, a 38-year-old man who was otherwise healthy fell from a personal conveyance causing a puncture of his elbow. Two months later, he was admitted to the hospital with a chronic draining wound on his left arm with no fever (36.7\u00b0C) and stable vital signs. The patient underwent white blood cell (WBC) imaging, and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT\/CT) to rule out osteomyelitis. Incision and drainage were performed, and the collected fluid was sent to a microbiology lab for culture diagnosis. Subsequently, matrix-assisted laser desorption\/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) analysis and antimicrobial susceptibility testing were performed.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p>A WBC image and SPECT\/CT test showed an increase in WBC uptake and activity in the subcutaneous tissue of the left arm. The culture diagnosis identified the isolate as Y. regensburgei and the patient received 2\u200aweeks of sulfamethoxazole 800\u200amg and trimethoprim 160\u200amg orally twice daily based on the results of the antimicrobial susceptibility testing. He demonstrated clinical improvements shown through wound healing and reduced pain.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title><jats:p>This report supports the potential of Y. regensburgei to act as an opportunistic pathogen even in hosts with no prior underlying diseases or conditions.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3138\/jammi-2022-0018","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,1,31]],"date-time":"2023-01-31T23:03:30Z","timestamp":1675206210000},"page":"94-98","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["<i>Yokenella regensburgei<\/i>infection in an immunocompetent individual after trauma following a fall from a personal conveyance"],"prefix":"10.3138","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Fatimah","family":"AlMutawa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Western University, London, Ontario, Canada"},{"name":"London Health Sciences Centre, London, Ontario, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sang Ho","family":"Kim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry, Western University, London, Ontario, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ana","family":"Cabrera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Western University, London, Ontario, Canada"},{"name":"London Health Sciences Centre, London, Ontario, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Johan","family":"Delport","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Western University, London, Ontario, Canada"},{"name":"London Health Sciences Centre, London, Ontario, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1696","reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"r1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"117","DOI":"10.7883\/yoken1952.37.117","volume":"37","author":"Kosako Y","year":"1984","journal-title":"Jpn J Med Sci Biol"},{"issue":"1","key":"r2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"5","DOI":"10.1016\/j.diagmicrobio.2003.08.006","volume":"48","author":"Stock I","year":"2004","journal-title":"Diagn Microbiol Infect Dis"},{"key":"r3","first-page":"5962463","volume":"2017","author":"Chi X","year":"2017","journal-title":"Case Rep Infect Dis"},{"issue":"11","key":"r4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2854","DOI":"10.1128\/jcm.32.11.2854-2855.1994","volume":"32","author":"Abbott SL","year":"1994","journal-title":"J Clin Microbiol"},{"issue":"6","key":"r5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"935","DOI":"10.1099\/jmm.0.058669-0","volume":"62","author":"Jain S","year":"2013","journal-title":"J Med Microbiol"},{"issue":"1","key":"r6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"00137","DOI":"10.1186\/s40168-017-0351-x","volume":"5","author":"Milori A","year":"2017","journal-title":"J Microbiol Exp"},{"issue":"12","key":"r7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e05177","DOI":"10.1002\/ccr3.5177","volume":"9","author":"Na G","year":"2021","journal-title":"Clin Case Rep"},{"issue":"3","key":"r8","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"177","DOI":"10.1016\/j.idnow.2021.11.004","volume":"52","author":"Denes E","year":"2021","journal-title":"Infect Dis Now"},{"issue":"36","key":"r9","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"11788","DOI":"10.1021\/bi990673y","volume":"38","author":"Jachymek W","year":"1999","journal-title":"Biochemistry"},{"issue":"1","key":"r10","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"39","DOI":"10.1128\/jcm.21.1.39-42.1985","volume":"21","author":"Hickman-Brenner FW","year":"1985","journal-title":"Journal of clinical microbiology"}],"container-title":["Journal of the Association of Medical Microbiology and Infectious Disease Canada"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/jammi.utpjournals.press\/doi\/pdf\/10.3138\/jammi-2022-0018","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,12,5]],"date-time":"2023-12-05T23:35:05Z","timestamp":1701819305000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/jammi.utpjournals.press\/doi\/10.3138\/jammi-2022-0018"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,1]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,1]]}},"alternative-id":["10.3138\/jammi-2022-0018"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3138\/jammi-2022-0018","relation":{},"ISSN":["2371-0888"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2371-0888","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,1]]}}}
