Abstract
Moraxella catarrhalis commonly colonizes the upper respiratory tract of humans, but infection caused by M. catarrhalis after orthopedic surgery is rare. Here, we report the first case of septic arthritis of the shoulder caused by an M. catarrhalis infection and outline the diagnosis and treatment steps as well as differences compared with other cases.
