概要
We describe a 25-year-old male presenting with fever during the non-neutropenic phase of chemotherapy. The presentation was that of a viral infection. The cause of the fever turned out to be a bacteremia with coagulase-negative staphylococci (CONS) originating from a totally implanted venous access port (VAP). We briefly discuss the different types of VAP-related infections and treatment modalities.
