This review article addresses the significant role of anaerobic cocci in the etiology of various human infections, highlighting their presence both in the normal microbiota and under pathological conditions. These microorganisms, ubiquitous on skin and mucosal surfaces, can become opportunistic pathogens under specific circumstances, contributing to a broad spectrum of infections from superficial abscesses to more severe complications such as endocarditis and meningitis. Among the most relevant genera are Finegoldia and Parvimonas, known for their ability to trigger inflammatory responses and interact with host tissues, thereby facilitating the infectious process. The accurate identification and classification of these anaerobic cocci represent a challenge due to their genetic and phenotypic diversity, underscoring the importance of advancing our knowledge of their biology through genomic techniques. This work emphasizes the need for further study of anaerobic cocci to better understand their contribution to human infections and to develop more effective therapeutic strategies.
