A septic embolism is a type of embolism that is infected with bacteria , resulting in the formation of pus . These may become dangerous if dislodged from their original location. Like other emboli, a septic embolism may be fatal. One of the common microbes that can lead to widespread dissemination of septic emboli is Fusobacterium necrophorum , a Gram negative anaerobic bacillus. Fusobacteria are commensal organisms in the oral cavity. F.necrophorum and F.nucleatum are the most important among the non spore forming anaerobic bacilli in causing human infections. F.necroporum may occasinally cause septicaemia with metastatic abscesses Lemierre s syndrome . Pathogenesis Septic emboli most often originate from Pulmonary extrapulmonary locations which have been infected for a period of time. For example, a person s intravenous access site, which is used to insert intravenous drug s, may become infected. When present in great number, septic emboli can coalesce and mimick a lobar or bronchopnuemonia. The infected site, combined with various coagulants that may be generated by the bacteria or the body, may then break off and enter the circulatory system , potentially causing a clot . Identification A septic embolism can be difficult to identify, as it is often attributed to other disorders or infections of the body. As a result, it may wreak havoc with CT scan s. It can also be confused with lymph node lymph nodules , considering the similarity in shape and size. However, septic emboli usually lodge in the heart valve s, where there are no lymph nodes.
