Abstract

Roseomonas gilardii is gram negative pink pigmented non fermentive bacteria and has been responsible for rare cause of human infections. The bacterium considered in recent years to be uncommon, yet potentially of clinical importance as an opportunistic pathogen mostly in patient with underlying disease particularly malignancy. We reported the case of Catheter related blood stream infection in African patient who is on chemotherapy with underlying malignancy. The organism was initially identified by phenotypical characterization and confirmed by 16S RNA gene sequence analysis. Very few such cases had been reported in India.
