Abstract

|
|
|
Acinetobacter baumannii is the most abundunt species of the Acinetobacter genus. The incidence of bacteremia caused by Acinetobacter baumannii among bloodstream infection has been increasing since 1986, when the taxonomy of the genus was first described. The mortality rate of bacteremia due to Acinetobacter baumannii is high, with reported ranging from 17 to 52%. We report a case of septic shock due to Acinetobacter baumannii in a 54-year-old man who underwent subtotal gastrectomy, with Billroth II reconstruction, for stomach cancer.
