Pandoraea species are often misidentified. Therefore, multiple approaches should be used to identify them, and decisions regarding antimicrobial treatment should be based on actual in vitro susceptibility. Only seven cases of Pandoraea spp. bloodstream infections have been reported, and we report the first case of cholangitis with bacteremia.
