We describe the first case report of bacteremia due to Aeromonas veronii biotype veronii. The infection occurred in a 77-year-old man suffering from multiple underlying conditions which included cancer of the sigmoid colon. Because of the unusual biochemical phenotype of this group (ornithine decarboxylase positive), it was originally identified as Vibrio cholerae.
