RESUMO
Dysgonic fermenter 3 (DF-3)-associated bacteremia occurred in a febrile patient with acute myelocytic leukemia during aplasia. Another DF-3 isolate, identical by ribotyping, was grown 10 weeks later from stool collected in the absence of diarrhea. This is the first case in which DF-3 was isolated from blood and stool specimens from the same patient.
