Abstract:
Staphylococcus lugdunensis is a coagulase negative staphylococcus
(CoNS). Infections caused by CoNS are normally less severe than infections
caused by S. aureus. However, S. lugdunensis is associated with a series of
severe cases of infective endocarditis displaying an aggressive course of
disease akin to S. aureus infections.
