As well known, the species of Bordetella, such as Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis are prevalent respiratory tract pathogens. Bordetella hinzii, another species of Bordetella genus, Bordetella hinzii could cause meningitis, bacteremia, lung disease, endocarditis, chronic cholangitis and soft tissue abscess. In this study, we reported a new case of Bordetella hinzii infection in Asia with the clinical presentation and laboratory diagnosis. This study systematically analyzed the etiological characteristics of the pathogen using Vitek 2, MALDI-TOF MS, drug susceptibility testing, and whole-genome sequencing, aiming to provide a valuable reference for the diagnosis and treatment of Bordetella hinzii infection.
