- Abstract
Pasteurella multocida is a gram-negative, non-motile, oxidase positive, catalase positive, indole positive, urease negative, non-spore-forming coccobacillus. Animal bites, scratching, and licking are the most critical risk factors for Pasteurella infections, but it may also occur without any contact. Data about the prevalence of these infections in Turkey is limited because most cases apply to primary healthcare institutions where bacterial culture cannot be performed, and infections are treated empirically. This report aims to analyze a soft-tissue infection caused by P. multocida following an animal bite and is reported for the first time from Konya.
