A 76-year-old man with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease who developed P multocida pneumonia and bacteremia has been described. The infection was treated with antibiotics, and the patient recovered. Pasteurella multocida is known to infect many species of animals. The instances of human infection due to this organism are frequently associated with exposure to animals. Pulmonary infection occurs principally in patients with underlying chronic bronchopulmonary disease.
