Despite the non-specific and mild presentation of L monocytogenes-associated spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, the outcome is poor and similar to that of neurolisteriosis, and so identification of L monocytogenes in ascitic fluid samples requires urgent parenteral amoxicillin-based treatment to avoid a fatal outcome.

Recurrent, ICD-associated L. monocytogenes bacteraemia with multiple septic pulmonary embolisms over a 2-year period
Infection, 8.03.2024
Tilføjet 8.03.2024
Abstract Background Listeria monocytogenes is a bacterial pathogen known for causing listeriosis, a foodborne illness with a wide spectrum of clinical presentations ranging from mild gastroenteritis to severe invasive disease, particularly affecting immunocompromised individuals, pregnant women, newborns, and the elderly. Successful treatment of patients with recurring listeria episodes due to colonised foreign material is often challenging, typically requiring a combination of antimicrobial treatment and surgical removal. Case presentation Here, we present a particularly complex case of chronic invasive listeriosis with a total of six relapses. After extensive investigations, the patient\'s ICD device was identified as the focus of infection. Conclusion The confirmation of relapses through cgMLST analysis highlights the persistence of Listeria monocytogenes and the potential for recurrence even after apparent resolution of symptoms in patients with foreign material. It emphasises the necessity for a comprehensive assessment to identify and mitigate the risk of relapses, thereby ensuring optimal management and outcomes.
