Pseudomonas luteola, formerly known as Chryseomonas luteola, is an infrequently encountered aerobic gram-negative bacterium. While it has been identified as a potential human bacterial pathogen, its connection to specific clinical conditions remains limited. Here, we present an exceptional case of a 27-year-old immunocompetent man with acute tonsillitis, who developed P. luteola bacteremia. This unique correlation, not extensively documented in previous studies, sheds light on the potential pathogenicity of P. luteola in patients with acute tonsillitis.
