Bogumila T Rogers 1, J C Anderson 1, Cynthia A Palmer 1, W G Henderson 1
PMCID: PMC477767  PMID: 4352465

Abstract

The literature concerning Pasteurella pneumotropica infection in animals and man is briefly reviewed and a case presented in which the organism was the cause of septicaemia in a patient receiving chemotherapy for myeloid leukaemia. Bacteriological findings are recorded and compared with those of other authors.
