%X Catabacter hongkongensis is a bacterium first isolated in 2007 and has since been detected in the blood of about fifteen patients with disease such as gastrointestinal malignancy, intestinal obstruction, or acute intestinal infection. We describe herein the case of a patient newly diagnosed with metastatic lung cancer, who died from a fatal infection possibly related to Catabacter hongkongensis bacteremia. By reviewing all cases reported in the literature, our case report supports that this infection is associated with a very high mortality in cancer patients.
