RESUMO
We describe the isolation and identification of Enterobacter intermedium from the gallbladder of a patient with cholecystitis. There have been only four documented isolations of this organism from humans; it normally occurs in surface water and unpolluted soils. The identification was initially made by a MicroScan Walk/Away system with a Neg Combo 18 conventional identification-susceptibility panel. The organism is susceptible to the aminoglycosides and imipenem but resistant to the cephalosporins and ciprofloxacin.
