Human Infections by Novel Zoonotic Species Corynebacterium silvaticum, Germany

24 Jun 2025

Abstract excerpt

We report 2 human Corynebacterium silvaticum infections in Germany with axillary lymphadenitis and abscess formation; in 1 case the infection likely originated from a slaughtered wild boar. This recently described member of the diphtheria toxin gene-bearing C. diphtheriae species complex might be a new zoonotic pathogen.
