Abstract :
Cupriavidus pauculus is a rare opportunistic pathogen primarily affecting immunocompromised hosts. We present a case of bloodstream infection caused by C. pauculus in a 52-year-old male with end-stage renal disease on maintenance haemodialysis. This report describes the clinical presentation, microbiological findings and treatment approach, accompanied by a comprehensive literature review and systematic analysis of all reported cases to provide insights into the management of this uncommon pathogen.
