Abstract
Mycoplasma hominis is a bacterium commonly found as a commensal organism in the urogenital tract, where it can occasionally cause infections. We present the case of a healthy 27-year-old woman who developed a left peritonsillar abscess following sexual intercourse. Microbiological analysis identified M. hominis as the sole pathogen. To our knowledge, this is the first documented case of peritonsillar abscess solely attributable to M. hominis following sexual activity.
