Background : Chromobacterium violaceum , a rare Gram-negative bacillus, is found in tropical and subtropical soils and stagnant water. Human infections, though uncommon, are often severe and rapidly progress to septicaemia with high mortality. Diagnosing C. violaceum infections in paediatric cases is challenging due to their clinical overlap with other bacterial and viral infections.
