Bacterial–Fungal Interactions Including Quorum Sensing, Between 2 Opportunistic Pathogens, Resulting in Post-Traumatic Sepsis in a Child Presenting With a Closed Femoral Fracture

Abstract: Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans (are opportunistic pathogens that cause systemic infections in immune-suppressed patients. They show important bacterial-fungal interactions including quorum sensing. This involves cell signaling to communicate between the cells of their own colony and the cells of rival microbes or the host. It is thought that this phenomenon is vital in the potential competition and virulence of the organisms. We report a case of a previously healthy 2-year-old boy, where an accide… Show more
