We investigated the clinical relevance of Dermabacter hominis isolated from samples of 108 patients. Polymicrobial growth was evident in 88% of specimens. Isolation of D. hominis was of definitive or possible significance in only 14% of patients. Vancomycin remains the drug of choice given a penicillin resistance rate of 84%. (C) 2020 The Author(s).
