Group B Streptococcus Bacteremia Leading to Aortitis from a Prevertebral Abscess in a 50-Year-Old Male

This case report describes a 50-year-old man with a history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and poorly controlled diabetes who presented with symptoms of nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, fevers, and chills. He was found to have group B streptococcal bacteremia, leading to a series of complications, including aortitis secondary to a prevertebral abscess. Despite challenges in management, the patient responded well to antibiotics and anticoagulation therapy, resulting in complete resolution of the prevertebral abscess and aortitis. This case highlights the importance of early recognition and multidisciplinary management in cases of severe group B streptococcal infections.
