Armstrong, MD, DPM, Zain Khalpey, MD, PhD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 103, Issue 6, Pages e493-e495 (June 2017) DOI: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2016.12.037 Copyright © 2017 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

Fig 1 (A) White light and (B) fluorescent images of the counterincision infection site 11 days after antibiotic treatment for the original Corneybacterium infection before myocutaneous flap closure. The red fluorescence in the wound periphery indicates possible gram-positive infection.
