Abstract
We report a77-year-old man with askin abscess caused by Actinomyces radingae. Targeted antibiotic therapy with amoxicillin/clavulanic acid for 6weeks resulted in clearing of the infection. A.radingae is arare pathogenic agent of skin and soft tissue infections. As with other Actinomyces infections, the early identification of the pathogen and specific antibiotic therapy is crucial for successful resolution of the infection because of the chronic course and the long treatment time needed. Usually, A.radingae is sensitive to β‑lactam antibiotics.
