摘要

Background

Rhizobium radiobacter is an opportunistic pathogen found in soil. It can cause infections in adults and children. In children, it is most often associated with peritonitis or systemic infections.

Case presentation

We report a rare case of pleural infection with Rhizobium radiobacter. The patient was a 4-year-old girl of Malian origin. She weighed 12 kg and was 95 cm tall. She was immunocompetent, wore no medical devices, and her vaccinations were up to date. She was successfully treated with antibiotics and oxygen therapy for 60 days.

Conclusion

Although Rhizobium radiobacter is considered a contaminant, it can cause pleurisy in children.
