 We reported a case of previously healthy 35-year-old man with Moraxella osloensis bacteremia. Computed tomographic imaging of the chest revealed bilateral pleural effusion and multiple areas of consolidation with cavitation. He was successfully treated with intravenous administration Meropenem(MEPM)for 13 days, and was continued 4 weeks of oral antibiotics.

 The clinical findings of lung lesion and postanginal sepsis led to diagnosis of Lemierre's syndrome. The predominant pathogen was an aerobic gram-negative coccobacillus, M. osloensis. The bacillus was isolated from blood culture, and was identified definitively by sequencing analysis of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene.
