ABSTRACT
Burkholderia cepacia is an important nosocomial pathogen in hospitalized patients, particularly those with prior antimicrobial therapy. B. cepacia causes various clinically significant infections such as bacteremia, pneumonia, and urinary tract and surgical site infections. However, osteomyelitis caused by B. cepacia is very rare. We present a case of B. cepacia vertebral osteomyelitis with review of the literature.
