We found significant differences in colonial morphology of A. haemolyticum colonies with changes in incubation duration, atmosphere, andmedium.However,it wasreassuringtonotethatfourof the six strains yielded the characteristic hemolytic pitting

Arcanobacterium haemolyticum was found in 1.4% and beta-haemolytic streptococci in 23% of throat cultures from army conscripts with sore throat (n = 498). 38% of the beta-haemolytic streptococci were of group A. Patients culture-positive for A. haemolyticum or beta-haemolytic streptococci had pharyngeal exudate, cervical lymphadenopathy and ear ache significantly more often--but cough less often--than …

A haemolyticum exhibits variable susceptibility to penicillin and is identified more easily on human or rabbit blood agar than on sheep agar, the media traditionally used to identify GABHS.

Infection with Arcanobacterium haemolyticum, a gram-positive rod, causes pharyngitis, typically in adolescents and young adults.

A. haemolyticum is reported as an in- frequent cause of peiitonsiDar abscess, pharyngitis, and tonsiDitis in children and young adults (>4). It was cultured from 12 of 129 children with pharyngotonsilli tis or scarlet fever, some of whom had a scarletiniforrn rash (5).

There are increasing reports of systemic infections caused by this organism. From India, we report the first case of Arcanobacterium haemolyticum causing pyothorax in an immunocompetent adolescent male patient. The probable mode of infection is also discussed. The role of A. hemolyticum as an animal Rhodococcus equi and Arcanobacterium haemolyticum, formerly classified in the genus Corynebacterium, are members of the loosely defined taxon "coryneform" bacteria. Although they are the etiologic agents of distinct human infections, both organisms are frequently overlooked, which results in missed or delayed diagnoses.

His history included a sore throat three days prior to the ED visit. A non-pruritic rash was noted on his trunk and upper extremities.
