Résumé

A 26-year-old man with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, recurrent otitis externa, and chronic otitis media sustained a left lower extremity amputation and open femur fracture with internal hardware fixation after a motor vehicle collision in Arizona. He presented to the emergency department at our institution with severe left leg pain and purulent discharge despite receiving two unidentified antibiotics upon discharge. Evaluations revealed an abscess and malunion of the femur. Initial cultures yielded scant Priestia endophytica, leading to daptomycin treatment. His condition worsened until Gram-positive bacilli identified as Mycobacterium goodii, a rare nosocomial mycobacterial species, were found. Significant improvement occurred with appropriate antibiotics. This case highlights the challenges in diagnosing and managing M. goodii infections in immunocompromised patients with orthopedic complications and notes P. endophytica as a previously unreported, possibly opportunistic human pathogen.
