Bacteremia and adrenal gland abscess due to Nocardia cyriacigeorgica: a case report and review.

Nocardia bacteremia is a rare event but blood cultures may help to improve detection of Nocardia spp. in a non-invasive way. Adrenal abscess due to Nocardia spp. is very rare with only fourteen cases reported in the literature, but it is a true cause of adrenal masses. Our report suggests that clinician should be aware of this rare location and prioritize a non-invasive diagnosis strategy.
