Abstract

Mycoplasma canis is an opportunistic bacterial pathogen that may colonize dogs and cattle. In the present case, we report for the first time the isolation of M. canis from a wound tissue specimen of a 62-year-old woman after a dog bite.

Keywords: Dog bite; MALDI; Microaerophilic cultivation; Mycoplasma canis; Wound infection.
