摘要:Staphylococcus caprae was originally isolated from goat milk. This uncommon coagulase-negative staphylococcus, usuallyassociated with animals, has only infrequently been detected in human clinical specimens. Its association with acute otitismedia has not been demonstrated so far. The study reports the first isolation of S. caprae from the middle ear fluid of a12-month-old infant with recurrent, bilateral acute otitis media. Biochemical traits and susceptibility pattern of the isolatedstrain are also presented.
