Emergence of invasive Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis in Spain (2012-2022): genomic insights and clinical correlations

11 Jan 2025

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: An increase in Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis (SDSE) infections has been documented worldwide. This study aims to analyze invasive disease caused by SDSE (iSDSE) in adults over an 11-year period in Spain. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective, laboratory-based study of iSDSE detected at Hospital Universitari de Bellvitge (HUB) from 2012 to 2022 (n = 89) and isolates collected in three...
