To our knowledge, no previous cases of human infection caused by <em>S. bongori</em> 48:z35:– have ever been reported in mainland Italy. Here we describe the isolation of <em>S. bongori</em> 48:z35:– from a 1-year-old symptomatic child in northwest Italy (Piedmont Region). The strain showed no antimicrobial resistance. Reporting of <em>S. bongori</em> 48:z35:– in a previously safe area is important to identify epidemiological changes.}, number={3}, journal={Microbiologia Medica}, author={Bellio, Alberto and Bianchi, Daniela M. and Acutis, Pierluigi and Biolatti, Cristina and Luzzi, Ida and Modesto, Paola and Rocchetti, Andrea and Decastelli, Lucia and Gallina, Silvia}, year={2016}, month={Oct.} }
