RESUMO
Over a 3-year period, an adult cystic fibrosis patient underwent eight episodes of pulmonary exacerbation of his disease. At least one of two different strains of Bordetella hinzii could be isolated from sputum samples in every instance. The differentiation of B. hinzii from related taxa and its role as an etiologic agent of infections are discussed. The two isolates of B. hinzii reported are the third and fourth human-derived strains described in the literature.
