Overview

French data on Streptobacillus moniliformis infections (zoonosis transmitted by rat bites) are rare and there are no case series in the literature to date. This is a pathology presenting atypical clinical manifestations for a bacterial infection and which therefore remains underdiagnosed. Streptobacillus moniliformis infections can be fatal without appropriate antibiotic treatment. This study could improve diagnosis, develop early treatment strategies and contribute to the overall understanding of zoonotic diseases
