Abstract
The first case of osteomyelitis caused by Enterobacter taylorae is presented. The infection occurred as a complication to an open fracture in an otherwise healthy host. Despite antimicrobial therapy, based on in vitro susceptibilities, it was not possible to establish a microbiologic cure.
