Clinical and microbiological features of obstructive cholangitis with bloodstream infection caused by Pandoraea apista identified by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and ribosomal RNA sequencing in a cancer patient

Abstract Background Pandoraea species are multidrug-resistant glucose-nonfermenting gram-negative bacilli that are usually isolated from patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and from water and soil. Reports of diseases, including bloodstream infections, caused by Pandoraea spp. in non-CF patients are...
