The man had his wounds surgically treated and was placed on intravenous antibiotics, but eventually made a full recovery.
According to the paper, the 48-year-old man visited doctors with painful swelling in both hands, merely eight hours after he was bitten multiple times by a single feral cat. The man’s wounds were cleaned and dressed, he was given a precautionary tetanus booster, and he was sent home with antibiotics. Unfortunately, he returned to the emergency department just 24 hours later as his infection continued to worsen.

Following another course of oral antibiotics, he made a full recovery.ImageIn trying to figure out the exact cause of the man’s infection, the authors found microbes inside his wounds that resembledle. But upon closer examination, the likely culprit didn’t have a direct genetic match to any known species of bacteria.
