Abstract

All patients were cured after successful completion of an antibiotic course with a resolution of infection. Cure was defined as granulation of the infected wound and resolution of clinical symptoms at outpatient follow-up between 6 and 8 weeks. This series emphasizes that C. striatum is often a true pathogen in the setting of CCO. When isolated in polymicrobial infections, a targeted antibiotic therapy towards this pathogen along with other causative pathogens accompanied by surgical intervention is typically required for a successful cure of CCO.
