A case of a diabetic man with infected biloma due to N. sicca after repeated transcatheter arterial embolization for hepatocellular carcinoma is reported. The patient was successfully treated with intravenous cefotaxime and metronidazole. The biochemical profile and 16S rRNA gene partial sequencing results of the isolate were in agreement with those of N. sicca. ? 2007 SGM.[SDGs]SDG3cefixime; cefotaxime; metronidazole; adult; artery catheterization; article; artificial embolism; bacterium isolate; case report; clinical examination; gene sequence; human; liver abscess; liver cell carcinoma; male; Neisseria sicca; nucleotide sequence; physical examination; priority journal; symptomatology; treatment response; Anti-Bacterial Agents; Anti-Infective Agents; Catheterization; Cefotaxime; Embolization, Therapeutic; Humans; Liver Abscess; Male; Metronidazole; Middle Aged; Neisseria sicca; Neisseriaceae Infections; Radiography, Abdominaljournal article10.1099/jmm.0.47192-0179653602-s2.0-36448956012
