ABSTRACT
Introduction: Pantoea agglomerans is a gram-negative bacillus
member of the Enterobacteriaceae family, of ubiquitous distribution
and in certain circumstances can have a pathogenic behavior in humans,
with few cases of neonatal infection not associated with health
care described in the literature, none of them reported in Colombia.
Case presentation: In the following report, we present the case
of a preterm, female newborn who, from the first day presents an
inadequate neonatal adaptation, with respiratory distress, sepsis
and a rapid clinical deterioration, which required management and
support in the neonatal intensive care unit. It was isolated by blood
cultures
P. agglomerans, susceptible to the antibiotic management
established, with a suitable posterior response, as well as a favorable
clinical evolution.
Conclusion: Neonatal sepsis due to
P. agglomerans is uncommon,
and its outcome will depend on many factors, as well as early detection,
timely assistance and appropriate management.
