“…Invasive listeriosis is a more severe form of the disease and affects certain high risk groups of the population. These include pregnant women, patients undergoing treatment for cancer, AIDS and organ transplants, elderly people and infants (WHO 2018;Tebib et al 2018). Cases of listeriosis result from consumption of contaminated food, particularly ready-to-eat foods, such as dairy products, smoked fish, and seafood (Allen et al 2016).…”

Lactobacillus plantarum BSL, previously isolated from Indonesian sauerkraut. In this study, we investigated the ability of L. plantarum BSL in reducing the tissue damage of liver and spleen in rats infected by Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 7644. Treatment group of rats received 0.5 mL culture suspension (109 CFU/mL) of L. plantarum BSL and control group received 0.5 mL of 0.85% w/v NaCl daily for nine days of experiment. Both groups were infected at 3rd day with 0.5 mL of suspension of L. monocytogenes (109CFU/mL). At the 2nd (before infection), 5th, 7th, and 9th day (after infection), the rats were sacrificed and then, liver and spleen were assessed for histopathological. Our study revealed that the administration of L. plantarum BSL could be able to reduce the liver and spleen damage of the experimental rats.

A 60-year-old man with no significant medical history was found unresponsive by his neighbour; he had neck stiffness on physical examination in the emergency department. He later developed acute hypoxic respiratory failure requiring endotracheal intubation. He is a binge drinker on weekends, and methamphetamine was detected in his urine. Contrast-enhanced CT of the chest, abdomen and pelvis revealed multifocal pneumonia, bilateral psoas abscesses and right infraspinatus muscle abscess. Blood, sputum and cerebrospinal fluid cultures grew Streptococcus pneumoniae. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) revealed tricuspid endocarditis with mild valve insufficiency. He was initially treated with intravenous antibiotics and underwent incision and drainage of right psoas abscess. However, he still had recurrent fever and confusion. Repeat TTE showed larger vegetation, and he also developed septic emboli at the posterior basal right lower lobe pulmonary artery. The patient underwent tricuspid valve debridement and was finally discharged after completing 6 weeks of intravenous antibiotic treatment.
