Introduction: Ochrobactrum anthropi is an opportunistic and rare human pathogen, which is seen widely in the environment. O. anthropi infections have been reported in both immunocompetent and immunocompromised individuals. There is no proper consensus on the diagnosis and management of O. anthropi related infections. Case Report: We report a case of O. anthropi related left distal clavicular osteomyelitis in an immunocompetent individual with an elaborative diagnostic and treatment algorithm for its effective management. Conclusion: A comprehensive management strategy with a combination of implant removal (if present) with extensive surgical debridement of bone and soft tissue and intravenous antibiotics results in successful eradication of O. anthropi infection.
