Graft infection and bacteremia with Listeria monocytogenes in a patient receiving hemodialysis.

Patients receiving hemodialysis are particularly susceptible to infection. We report a case of Listeria monocytogenes bacteremia and graft infection developing in a patient receiving hemodialysis. Vancomycin hydrochloride therapy was initiated in anticipation of a staphylococcal infection, and continued as the patient's clinical course improved. Ultimately the arteriovenous graft required excision. Identification of the organism and drug susceptibilities are described. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of both an L monocytogenes arteriovenous graft infection and the use of vancomycin in the treatment of this infection.[1]
