Article Synopsis
- Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is a type of bacteria normally found in the mouth that can lead to dental issues and, in rare cases, serious systemic diseases.
- A case is detailed where a healthy patient developed a severe illness due to this bacteria, which affected their lungs and created a connection to the chest wall (fistula).
- Diagnosing this infection was particularly challenging because the bacteria are hard to isolate in lab tests, making it tough to identify the exact cause of the patient's condition.
