Objectives: Vibrio cholerae non-O1/non-O139 (NOVC) bacteremia is infrequently reported in Western countries and is associated with unfavorable outcome.
Patient/method: We describe here the case of a diabetic patient with hepatic cytolysis and NOVC bacteremia following an episode of diarrhea.
Result: The patient was paucisymptomatic and had a favorable resolution with oral ciprofloxacin.
Conclusion: NOVC should be systematically sought in stool samples, particularly in immunocompromised patients, due to an increased risk of infection occurrence.
Keywords: Bacteremia; Detection; Global warming; Non Vibrio cholerae.
