Article Title: Vibrio cholera and V. parahaemolyticus coinfection in an oncology patient with gastroenteritis
Abstract: Vibrio-related gastroenteritis in the United States is mostly associated with the consumption of raw or improperly cooked seafood. We describe a case of a stage IV lung adenocarcinoma patient who became ill after eating crab while visiting Upstate New York. Molecular testing and culture confirmed a coinfection with V. parahaemolyticus and a nontoxigenic strain V. cholera. © 2019 Elsevier Inc.
