Abstract
Campylobacter fetus subsp. fetus infections are very rare in adults but can occur in immunocompromised elderly people and in patients with chronic disease. We describe the clinical case of a 52-year-old woman with alcoholic liver cirrhosis, where we isolated C.fetus subsp. fetus from blood culture.
