Weissella confusais a Gram-positive coccus usually found in the microbiota of humans and the environment. Different studies quote that it has caused infections in humans under unfavourable conditions. A case report causing septicemiain an 11-year-old male patient diagnosed with acute pancreatitis and having acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is presented. The patient was successfully treated with ceftazidime and a piperacillin-tazobactam combination after confirmation of bacteria by matrix-assisted laser desorption and ionisation-time of flight (MALDI-TOF-MS) and antimicrobial sensitivity testing (AST) performed as per the latest Clinical and Laboratory Standard Institute (CLSI) guidelines. The patient was discharged asymptomatically after drainage of fluid and was managed conservatively. Correct identification by the automated method is important for this species and also to find its mode of infection. Because of its similarities to other vancomycin-resistant cocci, isolates of this species might be difficult to identify, leading to drug resistance. A literature review in tabulated form is summarised.
