“…Despite the reports about various infections in animals by S pluranimalium, the reports about human infections are limited, and it is not clear that this microorganism is either the initial pathogen or not [1]. To the best of our knowledge, among the previously reported 13 human infections caused by Streptococcus pluranimalium, 3 were solely isolated from brain abscesses, 3 from septicemia, 2 from endocarditis [1,7], 1 from pericoronitis [6], 1 from ventilator-associated pneumonia, 1 from submandibular abscess [7], 1 from peritoneal dialysis peritonitis [8] and the last one from both infective endocarditis and brain abscess [2]. Only 4 of the reported human infections caused by Streptococcus pluranimalium were pediatric cases.…”
