A rare paronychia with superinfection with prevotella bivia and staphylococcus haemolyticus: the importance of early microbiological diagnosis

Prevotella bivia is an anaerobic, gram-negative bacillus which naturally thrives in the human vagina, and is usually related to vaginal tract infections. However, this microorganism can also cause infections in other body locations. Infections with Prevotella bivia are frequently severe due to the r...
