Abstract
The article discusses the case of a 67-year-old man who was admitted to a hospital in Paris, France for recurrent cellulitis in his left leg. The patient had undergone 7 chemotherapy courses and had received 2 autologous stem cell transplants. It is suggested that nasal carriage should be assessed in cases of recurrent infection or bacteremia.
