    Abstract

    Noncholera vibrios can cause soft tissue infections as well as diarrheal disease. A history of exposure to marine water or shellfish aids in the presumptive diagnosis of these atypical infections. The treatment of choice for Vibrio wound infections is tetracycline, since these organisms often are resistant to penicillins, cephalosporins and some aminoglycosides.
