Grimontia hollisae, a potential agent of gastroenteritis and bacteraemia in the Mediterranean area Edouard, S. Daumas, A. Branger, S. Durand, J. M. /Raoult, Didier Fournier, P. E. Vibrio hollisae was first described in 1982 as an agent of diarrhoea and was reclassified in 2003 into a novel genus as Grimontia hollisae. We report the first case of G. hollisae bacteraemia in the Mediterranean area, in an 81-year-old man with a severe gastroenteritis and hepatitis following the consumption of raw oysters. The incidence of this micro-organism as an agent of gastroenteritis may be underestimated because it may not be detected using routine culture conditions. 2009 text https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010046116 fdi:010046116 Edouard S., Daumas A., Branger S., Durand J.
