Arcanobacterium haemolyticum was recovered from 0.5% of throat cultures of 3,922 patients seeking medical attention because of sore throat. Most of the patients positive for A. haemolyticum were 15-25 years old, and had fever (80%), lymphadenopathy (67%), pharyngeal exudate (69%) or skin rash (23%). Neck pain or swelling due to regional lymphadenopathy commonly accompany sore throat. Fever, headache, fatigue, and malaise are variably present. The specific microbiologic cause of pharyngitis can rarely be distinguished based on clinical features alone.

Arcanobacterium haemolyticum.

Arcanobacterium haemolyticum was first described by MacLean et al. in 1946 ( 26) as a pathogen in cases of exudative pharyngitis and soft-tissue infections. In 1982 the previously named Corynebacterium haemolyticum was included in a new genus to reflect major differences in cell wall components and chemotaxonomic characters, the genus

In an 18-month period all throat cultures in our laboratory were examined for Arcanobacterium haemolyticum and clinical information was obtained. The great majority of the patients suffered from pharyngitis or tonsillitis, accompanied by a rash in 46% of cases.

A. haemolyticum is a beta-hemolytic gram-positive, pleomorphic, facultative anaerobic rod that has been implicated as an etiologic agent of non-streptococcal pharyngitis, especially in adolescents and young adults.

It is catalase-negative, aerobic, beta-hemolytic, and not motile. It has been known to cause head and neck infections, pharyngitis, and sinusitis (Arcanobacte Two uncommon presentations of Arcanobacterium Haemolyticum infection (sinusitis and pharyngitis) are described, emphasizing the poor response to commonly used antibiotics and the possibility of serious local and systemic complications. The difficulties still encountered in the clinical diagnosis are underlined, since this organism could easily pass unrecognized in bacteriological cultures. CONCLUSIONS: Arcanobacterium haemolyticum infection should be considered in the differential diagnosis when evaluating a young adult with an exanthem. Antibiotic treatment is reliably efficacious, but the throat swab must be specifically cultured on 5% human blood agar in order to make the diagnosis. Arcanobacterium haemolyticum (A.h.) was recovered from 0.43% of throat cultures of 3715 patients with sore throat, scarlatina and various skin rash.

Arcanobacterium haemolyticum is a gram-positive rod that has been reported to cause acute pharyngitis and scarlet fever-like rash, particularly in teenagers and young adults. Detecting this agent requires special methods for culture, and it has not routinely been sought in patients with scarlet fever or pharyngitis.
