A Case Report: Organs From a Donor With Highly Virulent Zoonotic Outbreak Strain of Streptococcus agalactiae Serotype III, Multilocus Sequence Type 283 Infective Endocarditis Did Not Result in Transmission With Adequate Prophylactic Antibiotic Cover.

In 2015, an outbreak involving a highly virulent zoonotic outbreak strain of Streptococcus agalactiae serotype III, multilocus sequence type 283 occurred in Singapore with increased neurologic complications, septic arthritis, and spinal infections in healthier patients. We report a case of a successful dual kidney transplant from a deceased donor with infective endocarditis and disseminated infection with the same strain of S agalactiae and we review the current literature.
