Abstract

A 75-year-old man was initially admitted to a hospital with complaints of malaise and fever of 39°C. He had Bacillus subtilis bacteremia and septic thrombophlebitis. He was immunocompetent and a regular consumer of natto, a traditional Japanese food fermented with B. subtilis. We suppose he was natto-induced septic thrombophlebitis.
