Abstract

Actinomycosis is a chronic granulomatous infection rarely presenting as disseminated disease. We describe a case of disseminated Actinomyces meyeri infection involving the lung, brain, heart, and skin, and review cases of disseminated A. meyeri. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a disseminated A. meyeri case associated with endocarditis.
