Introduction.Although rare, human infections caused byGordoniaspp. have been reported, especially within the immunocompromised population and those with long-term indwelling devices. We report a case ofGordoniaspp. bacteraemia in a renal transplant patient and present a literature review on microbiological identification methods of this organism.Case Presentation.A 62-year-old female renal transplant recipient admitted to hospital with a 2-month history of dry cough and fevers occurring weekly when receiving electrolyte replacement infusions via a Groshong line. Over 2 weeks, blood cultures repeatedly isolated a Gram-positive bacillus solely in aerobic bottles, and this was initially reported asRhodococcusspp. by the local microbiology laboratory. Chest computed tomography (CT) showed multiple ground-glass lung opacities suggestive of septic pulmonary emboli. As central line-associated bloodstream infection was suspected, empirical antibiotics were initiated and the Groshong line was removed. The Gram-positive bacillus was later confirmed by the reference laboratory asGordonia sputivia 16S rRNA sequencing. Vancomycin and ciprofloxacin for a duration of 6 weeks were completed as targeted antimicrobial therapy. After treatment, the patient remained symptom-free with marked improvement on repeat CT chest imaging.Conclusion.This case illustrates the challenges surrounding identification ofGordoniaspp. and other aerobic actinomycetes. 16S rRNA gene sequencing may be a preferred identification method, especially when initial workup of a weakly acid-fast organism fails to make an identification or shows discrepant results using traditional diagnostic modalities.
