摘要：

Brevibacterium sp. was isolated from the blood of an acutely iii Is-year-old female with AIDS. The isolate was identified as Brevibacteriun casei by use of carbohydrate assimilation tests. Treatment was successful with intravenonsly administered ciprofloxacin. To our knowledge, this is the first report of sepsis caused by B. casei in a human immunodeficiency virus-infected patient.
