34
Q

5 Your patient in the emergency room has a 5cm ulcer on her leg that is surrounded by a red warm and tender area of inflammation You do a Gram stain on pus from the ulcer and see grampositive cocci in chains Culture of the pus grows small βhemolytic colonies that are catalasenegative and are inhibited by bacitracin These results indicate that the organism causing her lesion is most likely

A

Streptococcus pyogenes

35
