초록

Dear Editor, There are rising concerns related to the high incidence of zoonotic diseases in humans, caused by close encounters with pets and other wild or domestic animals [1]. Pasteurella species are one of the most prevalent commensal and opportunistic infection-causing pathogens found in domestic and wild animals worldwide, and are part of the normal flora of the oral, nasal, and respiratory cavities in many animals such as dogs and cats [2]. Although Pasteurella mostly causes local wound infections in humans following animal bites or scratches, cases of infections including those of the bloodstream or respiratory system have also been reported for this opportunistic pathogen [3, 4]. However, to our knowledge, there is no report of pneumonic bacteremia caused by Pasteurella in Korea. We describe a case of a systemic infection of Pasteurella multocida in the bloodstream
